1Jehovah hath reigned, The earth is joyful, many isles rejoice.
1Jehovah reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad.
2Cloud and darkness <FI>are<Fi> round about Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.
2Clouds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3Fire before Him goeth, And burneth round about His adversaries.
3A fire goeth before him, And burneth up his adversaries round about.
4Lightened have His lightnings the world, The earth hath seen, and is pained.
4His lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled.
5Hills, like wax, melted before Jehovah, Before the Lord of all the earth.
5The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His honour.
6The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory.
7Ashamed are all servants of a graven image, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to him, all ye gods.
7Let all them be put to shame that serve graven images, That boast themselves of idols: Worship him, all ye gods.
8Zion hath heard and rejoiceth, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Thy judgments, O Jehovah.
8Zion heard and was glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoiced, Because of thy judgments, O Jehovah.
9For Thou, Jehovah, <FI>art<Fi> Most High over all the earth, Greatly Thou hast been exalted over all gods.
9For thou, Jehovah, art most high above all the earth: Thou art exalted far above all gods.
10Ye who love Jehovah, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, From the hand of the wicked he delivereth them.
10O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
