A Hymn About the Lord’s Power

97 The Lord ·is king [reigns; 47:2; 93:1; 96:10; 98:6; 99:1; Rev. 19:6]. Let the earth rejoice;
    ·faraway lands [or islands; or coastlands] should be glad.
Thick, dark clouds surround him.
    His ·kingdom [L throne] is ·built [established] on ·what is right [righteousness] and ·fair [justice].
A fire goes before him
    and ·burns up [flames] his enemies all around.

Fire(G) goes before(H) him
    and consumes(I) his foes on every side.
