Let the earth rejoice

1
For the same David, when his land was restored again to him. The Lord hath reigned, let the earth rejoice: let many islands be glad.
2
Clouds and darkness are round about him: justice and judgment are the establishment of his throne.
3
A fire shall go before him, and shall burn his enemies round about.
4
His lightnings have shone forth to the world: the earth saw and trembled.
5
The mountains melted like wax, at the presence of the Lord: at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
6
The heavens declared his justice: and all people saw his glory.
7
Let them be all confounded that adore graven things, and that glory in their idols. Adore him, all you his angels:
8
Sion heard, and was glad. And the daughters of Juda rejoiced, because of thy judgments, O Lord.
9
For thou art the most high Lord over all the earth: thou art exalted exceedingly above all gods.
10
You that love the Lord, hate evil: the Lord preserveth the souls of his saints, he will deliver them out of the hand of the sinner.
11
Light is risen to the just, and joy to the right of heart.
12
Rejoice, ye just, in the Lord: and give praise to the remembrance of his holiness.

Let the earth rejoice

1
The LORD reigns! Let the earth rejoice! Let the multitude of islands be glad!
2
Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3
A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.
4
His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.
5
The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6
The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.
7
Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods!(a)
8
Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced because of your judgments, LORD.
9
For you, LORD, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.
10
You who love the LORD, hate evil! He preserves the souls of his saints. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
11
Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12
Be glad in the LORD, you righteous people! Give thanks to his holy Name.
