| | | Jehovahs Power and Dominion |
| |
| |
| [1] | JEHOVAH reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad. |
| [2] | Clouds 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] | His lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled. |
| [5] | The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. |
| [6] | The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory. |
| [7] | Let all them be put to shame 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 Jehovah. |
| [9] | For 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] | Light is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart. |
| [12] | Be glad in Jehovah, ye righteous; And give thanks to his holy memorial name. |
