Jehovah reigns! Let the earth rejoice. Let the multitude of isles be glad.

7 יֵבֹשׁוּ ׀ כׇּל־עֹבְדֵי פֶסֶל הַמִּֽתְהַלְלִים בָּאֱלִילִים הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ־לוֹ כׇּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃

Let all those be put to shame who serve graven images, who boast themselves of idols. Bow yourselves to him, all ye gods.

O ye who love Jehovah, hate evil. He preserves the souls of his sanctified. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
