¹Jehovah reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad.

²Clouds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

³A fire goeth before him, And burneth up his adversaries round about.

⁴His lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled.

⁵The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

⁶The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory.

⁷Let all them be put to shame that serve graven images, That boast themselves of idols: Worship him, all ye gods.

⁸Zion heard and was glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoiced, Because of thy judgments, O Jehovah.

⁹For thou, Jehovah, art most high above all the earth: Thou art exalted far above all gods.

¹⁰O ye that love Jehovah, hate evil: He preserveth the souls of his saints; He delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

¹¹Light is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart.

¹²Be glad in Jehovah, ye righteous; And give thanks to his holy memorial `name'. Psalm 98 A Psalm.
