Psalm 97, Catholic Public Domain Version

  1. A Psalm of David himself. Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has performed wonders. His right hand has accomplished salvation for him, with his holy arm.

    Psalmus ipsi David. Cantate Domino canticum novum, quia mirabilia fecit. Salvavit sibi dextera ejus, et brachium sanctum ejus.

  2. 2

    The Lord has made known his salvation. He has revealed his justice in the sight of the nations.

    Notum fecit Dominus salutare suum; in conspectu gentium revelavit justitiam suam.

  3. 3

    He has remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

    Recordatus est misericordiæ suæ, et veritatis suæ domui Israël. Viderunt omnes termini terræ salutare Dei nostri.

  4. 4

    Sing joyfully to God, all the earth. Sing and exult, and sing psalms.

    Jubilate Deo, omnis terra; cantate, et exsultate, et psallite.

  5. 5

    Sing psalms to the Lord with stringed instruments, with strings and the voice of a psalmist,

    Psallite Domino in cithara; in cithara et voce psalmi;

  6. 6

    with subtle wind instruments and the voice of woodwinds. Make a joyful noise before the Lord our king.

    in tubis ductilibus, et voce tubæ corneæ. Jubilate in conspectu regis Domini:

  7. 7

    Let the sea be moved and all its fullness, the whole world and all who dwell in it.

    moveatur mare, et plenitudo ejus; orbis terrarum, et qui habitant in eo.

  8. 8

    The rivers will clap their hands, the mountains will exult together,

    Flumina plaudent manu; simul montes exsultabunt

  9. 9

    before the presence of the Lord. For he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with justice, and the peoples with fairness.

    a conspectu Domini: quoniam venit judicare terram. Judicabit orbem terrarum in justitia, et populos in æquitate.
