Psalms

Let the Earth Rejoice

1Jehovah reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad.+ 2Clouds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.+ 3A fire goeth before him, And burneth up his adversaries round about.+ 4His lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled.+ 5The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.+ 6The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory.+ 7Let all them be put to shame that serve graven images, That boast themselves of idols: Worship him, all ye gods.+ 8Zion heard and was glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoiced, Because of thy judgments, O Jehovah.+ 9For thou, Jehovah, art most high above all the earth: Thou art exalted far above all gods.+ 10O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.+ 11Light is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart.+ 12Be glad in Jehovah, ye righteous; And give thanks to his holy memorial [name].+
