Psalm 97:5–8

5 The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,

before the Lord of all the earth.

6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,

and all peoples see his glory.

7 All who worship images are put to shame,

those who boast in idols—

worship him, all you gods!

8 Zion hears and rejoices

and the villages of Judah are glad

because of your judgments, Lord.

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.

5 The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,

before the Lord of all the earth.

6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness;

every nation sees his glory.

7 Those who worship idols are disgraced—

all who brag about their worthless gods—

for every god must bow to him.

8 Jerusalem has heard and rejoiced,

and all the towns of Judah are glad

because of your justice, O Lord!

5 The mountains melt 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 peoples see His glory.

7 Let all be put to shame who serve carved images,

Who boast of idols.

Worship Him, all you gods.

And the daughters of Judah rejoice

Because of Your judgments, O Lord.

they brag about their gods.

All the gods should worship the Lord.

and the towns of Judah rejoice.

They are happy because of your judgments, Lord.

5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah,

At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

That boast themselves of idols:

Worship him, all ye gods.
