Psalms 97

Psalm 97 proclaims that YHWH reigns, evoking cosmic awe with fire consuming foes, lightning illuminating the world, and mountains melting like wax before the Adonai of all the earth; the heavens declare his righteousness as idol-worshipers are shamed and all gods bow to him.[1][2][3] Zion rejoices at YHWH's judgments, affirming him as Most High over all; he protects his faithful who hate evil, sowing light and gladness for the righteous who rejoice in his holy name.[1][2][3]
