†...Rejoice in the LORD...†
1: The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
2: Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.
3: A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4: His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5: The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6: The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7: Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
8: Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.
9: For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
10: Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11: Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12: Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
And all praise, glory and honor be unto Him!! |
