1 The Lord is king! Earth, be glad!Rejoice, you islands of the seas!
2 Clouds and darkness surround him;he rules with righteousness and justice.
3 Fire goes in front of himand burns up his enemies around him.
4 His lightning lights up the world;the earth sees it and trembles.
5 The hills melt like wax before the Lord,before the Lord of all the earth.
6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,and all the nations see his glory.
7 Everyone who worships idols is put to shame;all the gods bow down before the Lord.
