The LORD's Dominion and Power |
| 1 |
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice;
| | |
let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. |
|
|
| 2 |
Clouds and darkness are round about him:
| | |
righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. |
|
|
| 3 |
A fire goeth before him,
| | |
and burneth up his enemies round about. |
|
|
| 4 |
His lightnings enlightened the world:
| | |
the earth saw, and trembled. |
|
|
| 5 |
The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD,
| | |
at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. |
|
|
| 6 |
The heavens declare his righteousness,
| | |
and all the people see his glory. |
|
|
| 7 |
Confounded be all they that serve graven images,
| | |
that boast themselves of idols: |
|
worship him, all ye gods. |
|
|
| 8 |
Zion heard, and was glad;
| | |
and the daughters of Judah rejoiced |
|
because of thy judgments, O LORD. |
|
|
| 9 |
For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth:
| | |
thou art exalted far above all gods. |
|
|
| 10 |
Ye that love the LORD, hate evil:
| | |
he preserveth the souls of his saints; |
|
he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked. |
|
|
| 11 |
Light is sown for the righteous,
| | |
and gladness for the upright in heart. |
|
|
| 12 |
Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous;
| | |
and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. |
|
