1 The Lord is king. Let the earth rejoice;faraway lands should be glad.
2 Thick, dark clouds surround him.His kingdom is built on what is right and fair.
3 A fire goes before himand burns up his enemies all around.
4 His lightning lights up the world;when the people see it, they tremble.
5 The mountains melt like wax before the Lord,before the Lord of all the earth.
6 The heavens tell about his goodness,and all the people see his glory.
7 Those who worship idols should be ashamed;they brag about their gods.All the gods should worship the Lord.
