יְהוָ֣ה מָ֭לָךְ תָּגֵ֣ל הָאָ֑רֶץ יִ֝שְׂמְח֗וּ אִיִּ֥ים רַבִּֽים׃ | 1 |
YHWH reigns. Let the earth rejoice. Let the multitude of islands be glad.
עָנָ֣ן וַעֲרָפֶ֣ל סְבִיבָ֑יו צֶ֥דֶק וּ֝מִשְׁפָּ֗ט מְכֹ֣ון כִּסְאֹֽו׃ | 2 |
Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
אֵ֭שׁ לְפָנָ֣יו תֵּלֵ֑ךְ וּתְלַהֵ֖ט סָבִ֣יב צָרָֽיו׃ | 3 |
A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.
הֵאִ֣ירוּ בְרָקָ֣יו תֵּבֵ֑ל רָאֲתָ֖ה וַתָּחֵ֣ל הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 4 |
His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.
הָרִ֗ים כַּדֹּונַ֗ג נָ֭מַסּוּ מִלִּפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה מִ֝לִּפְנֵ֗י אֲדֹ֣ון כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 5 |
The mountains melt like wax at the presence of YHWH, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
הִגִּ֣ידוּ הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם צִדְקֹ֑ו וְרָא֖וּ כָל־הָעַמִּ֣ים כְּבֹודֹֽו׃ | 6 |
The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.
יֵבֹ֤שׁוּ ׀ כָּל־עֹ֬בְדֵי פֶ֗סֶל הַמִּֽתְהַלְלִ֥ים בָּאֱלִילִ֑ים הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ־לֹ֝ו כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 7 |
Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods.
שָׁמְעָ֬ה וַתִּשְׂמַ֨ח ׀ צִיֹּ֗ון וַ֭תָּגֵלְנָה בְּנֹ֣ות יְהוּדָ֑ה לְמַ֖עַן מִשְׁפָּטֶ֣יךָ יְהוָֽה׃ | 8 |
Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced, because of your judgments, YHWH.
כִּֽי־אַתָּ֤ה יְהוָ֗ה עֶלְיֹ֥ון עַל־כָּל־הָאָ֑רֶץ מְאֹ֥ד נַ֝עֲלֵ֗יתָ עַל־כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 9 |
For you, YHWH, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.
אֹהֲבֵ֥י יְהוָ֗ה שִׂנְא֫וּ רָ֥ע שֹׁ֭מֵר נַפְשֹׁ֣ות חֲסִידָ֑יו מִיַּ֥ד רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יַצִּילֵֽם׃ | 10 |
You who love YHWH, hate evil. He preserves the souls of his faithful ones. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
שִׂמְח֣וּ צַ֭דִּיקִים בַּֽיהוָ֑ה וְ֝הֹוד֗וּ לְזֵ֣כֶר קָדְשֹֽׁו׃ | 12 |
Be glad in YHWH, you righteous people. Give thanks to his holy Name.
