## Text

[1] The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice;
let the distant shores be glad. [2] Clouds and darkness surround Him;
righteousness and justice are His throne’s foundation. [3] Fire goes before Him
and consumes His foes on every side. [4] His lightning illuminates the world;
the earth sees and trembles. [5] The mountains melt like wax
at the presence of the LORD,
before the Lord of all the earth. [6] The heavens proclaim His righteousness;
all the peoples see His glory. [7] All worshipers of images are put to shame—
those who boast in idols.
Worship Him, all you gods! [8] Zion hears and rejoices,
and the towns of Judah exult
because of Your judgments, O LORD. [9] For You, O LORD, are Most High over all the earth;
You are exalted far above all gods. [10] Hate evil, O you who love the LORD!
He preserves the souls of His saints;
He delivers them from the hand of the wicked. [11] Light shines on the righteous,
gladness on the upright in heart. [12] Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous ones,
and praise His holy name.
