1 Ѱало́мъ дв҃дꙋ, є҆гда̀ землѧ̀ є҆гѡ̀ ᲂу҆строѧ́шесѧ, не надпи́санъ ᲂу҆ є҆врє́й, Гдⷭ҇ь воцр҃и́сѧ, да ра́дꙋетсѧ землѧ̀, да веселѧ́тсѧ ѻ҆́строви мно́зи.
97:1 Yahweh reigns! Let the earth rejoice! Let the multitude of islands be glad!
2 Ѡ҆́блакъ и҆ мра́къ ѡ҆́крестъ є҆гѡ̀: пра́вда и҆ сꙋдьба̀ и҆справле́нїе прⷭ҇то́ла є҆гѡ̀.
97:2 Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3 Ѻ҆́гнь пред̾ ни́мъ пред̾и́детъ и҆ попали́тъ ѡ҆́крестъ врагѝ є҆гѡ̀.
97:3 A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.
4 Ѡ҆свѣти́ша мѡ́лнїѧ є҆гѡ̀ вселе́ннꙋю: ви́дѣ и҆ подви́жесѧ землѧ̀.
97:4 His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.
5 Го́ры ꙗ҆́кѡ во́скъ раста́ѧша ѿ лица̀ гдⷭ҇нѧ, ѿ лица̀ гдⷭ҇а всеѧ̀ землѝ.
97:5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of Yahweh, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 Возвѣсти́ша нб҃са̀ пра́вдꙋ є҆гѡ̀, и҆ ви́дѣша всѝ лю́дїе сла́вꙋ є҆гѡ̀.
97:6 The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.
7 Да постыдѧ́тсѧ всѝ кла́нѧющїисѧ и҆стꙋка̑ннымъ, хва́лѧщїисѧ ѡ҆ і҆́дѡлѣхъ свои́хъ: поклони́тесѧ є҆мꙋ̀, всѝ а҆́гг҃ли є҆гѡ̀.
97:7 Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods!
8 Слы́ша и҆ возвесели́сѧ сїѡ́нъ, и҆ возра́довашасѧ дщє́ри і҆ꙋдє́йскїѧ, сꙋде́бъ ра́ди твои́хъ, гдⷭ҇и:
97:8 Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced because of your judgments, Yahweh.
9 ꙗ҆́кѡ ты̀ гдⷭ҇ь вы́шнїй над̾ все́ю земле́ю, ѕѣлѡ̀ превозне́слсѧ є҆сѝ над̾ всѣ́ми бѡ́ги.
97:9 For you, Yahweh, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.
10 Лю́бѧщїи гдⷭ҇а, ненави́дите ѕла̑ѧ: храни́тъ гдⷭ҇ь дꙋ́шы прпⷣбныхъ свои́хъ, и҆з̾ рꙋкѝ грѣ́шничи и҆зба́витъ ѧ҆̀.
97:10 You who love Yahweh, hate evil! He preserves the souls of his saints. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 Свѣ́тъ возсїѧ̀ првⷣникꙋ, и҆ пра̑вымъ срⷣцемъ весе́лїе.
97:11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Весели́тесѧ, првⷣнїи, ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ, и҆ и҆сповѣ́дайте па́мѧть ст҃ы́ни є҆гѡ̀.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 97.

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

In order then that they might believe that the voice proceeds from God, …
