6 H onor and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

11 L et the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar, and all the things which fill it;

12 L et the field be exultant, and all that is in it! Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy

13 B efore the Lord, for He comes, for He comes to judge and govern the earth! He shall judge the world with righteousness and justice and the peoples with His faithfulness and truth.
