1 J ehovah reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad.

2 C louds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

3 A fire goeth before him, And burneth up his adversaries round about.

4 H is lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled.

5 T he mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

6 T he heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory.

7 L et all them be put to shame that serve graven images, That boast themselves of idols: Worship him, all ye gods.

8 Z ion heard and was glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoiced, Because of thy judgments, O Jehovah.

9 F or thou, Jehovah, art most high above all the earth: Thou art exalted far above all gods.

10 O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

11 L ight is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart.

12 B e glad in Jehovah, ye righteous; And give thanks to his holy memorial name.
