1	The LORD is king! Let the earth rejoice; let the many coastlands be glad!
2	Clouds and thick darkness are all around him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3	Fire goes before him, and consumes his adversaries on every side.
4	His lightnings light 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 the peoples behold his glory.
7	All worshipers of images are put to shame, those who make their boast in worthless idols; all gods bow down before him.
8	Zion hears and is glad, and the towns of Judah rejoice, because of your judgments, O God.
9	For you, O LORD, are most high over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods.
10	The LORD loves those who hate evil; he guards the lives of his faithful; he rescues them from the hand of the wicked.
11	Light dawns for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
12	Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous, and give thanks to his holy name!
