¹ The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad;
let the distant shores rejoice.
² Clouds and thick darkness surround him;
righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
³ Fire goes before him
and consumes his foes on every side.
⁴ His lightning lights up the world;
the earth sees and trembles.
⁵ The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,
before the Lord of all the earth.
⁶ The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
and all peoples see his glory.
⁷ All who worship images are put to shame,
those who boast in idols—
worship him, all you gods!
⁸ Zion hears and rejoices
and the villages of Judah are glad
because of your judgments, Lord.
⁹ For you, Lord, are the Most High over all the earth;
you are exalted far above all gods.
¹⁰ Let those who love the Lord hate evil,
for he guards the lives of his faithful ones
and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
¹¹ Light shines on the righteous
and joy on the upright in heart.
¹² Rejoice in the Lord, you who are righteous,
and praise his holy name.
