Texto — Reina-Valera 1960

1Jehová reina; regocíjese la tierra, Alégrense las muchas costas.

2Nubes y oscuridad alrededor de él; Justicia y juicio son el cimiento de su trono.

3Fuego irá delante de él, Y abrasará a sus enemigos alrededor.

4Sus relámpagos alumbraron el mundo; La tierra vio y se estremeció.

5Los montes se derritieron como cera delante de Jehová, Delante del Señor de toda la tierra.

6Los cielos anunciaron su justicia, Y todos los pueblos vieron su gloria.

7Avergüéncense todos los que sirven a las imágenes de talla, Los que se glorían en los ídolos. Póstrense a él todos los dioses.

8Oyó Sion, y se alegró; Y las hijas de Judá, Oh Jehová, se gozaron por tus juicios.

9Porque tú, Jehová, eres excelso sobre toda la tierra; Eres muy exaltado sobre todos los dioses.

10Los que amáis a Jehová, aborreced el mal; Él guarda las almas de sus santos; De mano de los impíos los libra.

11Luz está sembrada para el justo, Y alegría para los rectos de corazón.

12Alegraos, justos, en Jehová, Y alabad la memoria de su santidad.
