New International Reader's Version

Psalm 97:5-10 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

5. The mountains melt like wax when the Lord is near. He is the Lord of the whole earth.

6. The heavens announce that what he does is right. All people everywhere see his glory.

7. All who worship statues of gods or brag about them are put to shame. All you gods, worship the Lord!

8. Zion hears about it and is filled with joy. Lord, the villages of Judah are glad because of how you judge.

9. Lord, you are the Most High God. You rule over the whole earth. You are honored much more than all gods.

10. Let those who love the Lord hate evil. He guards the lives of those who are faithful to him. He saves them from the power of sinful people.
