The Lord is King, the earth may be glad thereof  *

yea, the multitude of the isles may be glad thereof.

Clouds and darkness are round about him *

righteousness and judgement are the habitation of his seat.

There shall go a fire before him *

and burn up his enemies on every side.

His lightnings gave shine unto the world *

the earth saw it, and was afraid.

The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord *

at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

The heavens have declared his righteousness *

and all the people have seen his glory.

Confounded be all they that worship carved images, and that delight in vain gods *

worship him, all ye gods.

Sion heard of it, and rejoiced *

and the daughters of Judah were glad, because of thy judgements, O Lord.

For thou, Lord, art higher than all that are in the earth *

thou art exalted far above all gods.

O ye that love the Lord, see that ye hate the thing which is evil *

the Lord preserveth the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of the ungodly.

There is sprung up a light for the righteous *

and joyful gladness for such as are true-hearted.

Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous *

and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.

I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, with my whole heart  *

even before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy Name, because of thy loving-kindness and truth *

for thou hast magnified thy Name and thy word above all things.

When I called upon thee, thou heardest me *

and enduedst my soul with much strength.

All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord *

for they have heard the words of thy mouth.

Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the Lord *

that great is the glory of the Lord.

For though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly *

as for the proud, he beholdeth them afar off.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, yet shalt thou refresh me *

thou shalt stretch forth thy hand upon the furiousness of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

The lord shall make good his loving-kindness toward me *

yea, thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever; despise not then the works of thine own hands.
