The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice;
let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. Clouds and darkness
are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation
of his throne. A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies
round about. His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw,
and trembled. The hills melted like wax at the presence of the
LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. The heavens
declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory. Confounded
be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of
idols: worship him, all ye gods.
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters
of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD. For thou,
LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above
all gods. Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the
souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the
wicked. Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the
upright in heart. Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give
thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
