Chapter 97
The Lord reigns; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. 2 Clouds and darkness are round about Him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of His throne. 3 A fire goes before Him, and burns up His enemies roundabout. 4 His Lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. 5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. 6 The heavens declare His righteousness, and all the people see His glory. 7 Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship Him, all ye gods.
8 Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of Thy judgments, O Lord. 9 For Thou, Lord, are high above all the earth: Thou are exalted far above all gods.
10 Ye that love the Lord, hate evil: He preserves the souls of His saints; He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked. 11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. 12 Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness.

Chapter 98
O sing unto the Lord a new song; for He has done marvelous things: His right hand, and His holy arm, has gotten Him the victory. 2 The Lord has made known His salvation: His righteousness has He openly showed in the sight of the heathen. 3 He has remembered His mercy and His truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise. 5 Sing unto the Lord with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm. 6 With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the Lord, the King. 7 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. 8 Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together 9 Before the Lord; for He comes to judge the earth: with righteousness shall He judge the world, and the people with equity.
​Chapter 99
The Lord reigns; let the people tremble: He sits between the cherubims; let the earth be moved. 2 The Lord is great in Zion; and He is high above all the people. 3 Let them praise Thy great and terrible name; for it is holy.
4 The King’s strength also loves judgment; Thou do establish equity, Thou execute judgment and righteousness in Jacob. 5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and worship at His footstool; for He is holy.
6 Moses and Aaron among His priests, and Samuel among them that call upon His name; they called upon the Lord, and He answered them. 7 He spake unto them in the cloudy pillar: they kept His testimonies, and the ordinance that He gave them. 8 Thou answered them, O Lord our God: Thou were a God that forgave them, though Thou took vengeance of their inventions.
9 Exalt the Lord our God, and worship at His holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
