"O you who love the LORD, hate evil!" (Psalm 97:10a)
That's pretty straightforward, isn't it?
Love God. Hate evil.
It couldn't be much simpler than that, could it?
And the rest of the psalm explains why we should love God and hate evil.
It's because of who God is.
He reigns (v 1).
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His reign (v 2).
He destroys His adversaries (v 3).
He controls weather (v 4).
He controls natural disasters (v 5).
His righteousness and glory are visible to all (v 6).
He is worthy of worship (v 7-8).
He is supreme over all gods (v 9).
He preserves and delivers His children (v 10).
Therefore we can rejoice and give thanks! (v 11-12).
Love God.
Hate Evil.
