Psalm 97:2-5

²Clouds and darkness surround Him;

righteousness and justice are His throne’s foundation.

³Fire goes before Him

and consumes His foes on every side.

⁴His lightning illuminates the world;

the earth sees and trembles.

⁵The mountains melt like wax

at the presence of the LORD,

before the Lord of all the earth.
