Let the streams clap their hands, let the hills shout for gladness together

9 Before the LORD; for he comes to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

before the Lord for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with justice and the nations with equity.
