The LORD reigns! Let the earth rejoice! Let the multitude of islands be glad!

The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.

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

Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods!

Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced because of your judgments, LORD.

9 כִּֽי־אַתָּה יְהֹוָה עֶלְיוֹן עַל־כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ מְאֹד נַעֲלֵיתָ עַל־כׇּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃

For you, LORD, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.
