¹ The Lord reigns!
Let the earth be happy!
Let the many coastlands rejoice!
² Dark clouds surround him;
equity and justice are the foundation of his throne.
³ Fire goes before him;
on every side it burns up his enemies.
⁴ His lightning bolts light up the world;
the earth sees and trembles.
⁵ The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,
before the Lord of the whole earth.
⁶ The sky declares his justice,
and all the nations see his splendor.
⁷ All who worship idols are ashamed,
those who boast about worthless idols.
All the gods bow down before him.
⁸ Zion hears and rejoices,
the towns of Judah are happy,
because of your judgments, O Lord.
⁹ For you, O Lord, are the sovereign king over the whole earth;
you are elevated high above all gods.
¹⁰ You who love the Lord, hate evil!
He protects the lives of his faithful followers;
he delivers them from the power of the wicked.
¹¹ The godly bask in the light;
the morally upright experience joy.
¹² You godly ones, rejoice in the Lord!
Give thanks to his holy name.
