The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice, let the many islands rejoice. Clouds and darkness are around Him, truth and destiny are the correction of His throne. Fire will come before Him, and His enemies will burn all around. The lightning illuminated His universe: we saw the earth move. The mountains melted like wax from the presence of the Lord, from the presence of the Lord of all the earth. You proclaimed His righteousness to the heavens, and saw His glory to all people. Let all who worship idols be ashamed, all who boast about their idols; let all His angels worship Him. Hearing and rejoicing, Zion rejoiced, and the daughters of Judah rejoiced, because of Your destinies, O Lord, for You are the Lord Most High over all the earth, and You have greatly exalted yourself above all gods. Lovers of the Lord, hate evil, the Lord protects the souls of His saints, I will deliver sinners from the hand. Light shines upon the righteous, and joy upon the upright heart. Rejoice, O righteous ones, in the Lord and confess the memory of His Holiness. The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice, let the many islands rejoice!
Cloud and darkness surround Him; righteousness and law are the foundation of His Throne. A fire will blaze before Him and destroy all His enemies. His lightnings illuminated the universe; I saw and the earth shook. The mountains melted like wax before the face of the Lord, before the face of the Lord of all the earth. The heavens declared His righteousness, and all nations saw His glory. Let all who bow down to idols and boast about their idols be put to shame! Worship God, all His Angels! Zion heard and rejoiced, and the daughters of Judah rejoiced at Thy righteous judgments, O Lord; For You, the Most High, are Lord of all the earth, and are highly exalted above all gods. Those who love the Lord, hate evil! The Lord protects the souls of His righteous, and will deliver them from the hand of the sinner. Light shines on the righteous, and joy on those who are pure in heart. Rejoice, righteous ones, in the Lord, remember and praise His holiness!
Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Psalm 97
Psalm to David.
Psalm of David, 97.
Sing to the Lord a new song, for the Lord has created a wondrous thing. His right hand saved Him, and His holy arm. The Lord has spoken His salvation, revealing His truth to the tongues. I will remember my mercy to Jacob, and my truth to the house of Israel, seeing all the ends of the earth the salvation of our God. Shout to God, all the earth, sing, and rejoice, and sing. Sing to the Lord with the harp, the harp and the voice of the psalm. With forged trumpets and the voice of the trumpet, the trumpets sound before the Lord the King. Let the sea and its fullness move, the universe and all who live on it. The rivers will clasp their hands together, the mountains will rejoice. From the presence of the Lord, as he comes, as he comes to judge the earth, to judge the world in righteousness, and to judge the people with righteousness. Sing a new song to the Lord, for the Lord has done wonderful things; His right hand, His holy hand, saved the people. The Lord told us the way of salvation; He revealed His truth to the people. He remembered the mercy that He showed Jacob, the truth that He told the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth saw the salvation sent by our God.
Call to God, all the earth, sing and rejoice and sing! Sing to the Lord, playing the harp and singing psalms! Blow your trumpets with forged and horned ones before the King Lord! May the sea and all that is in it, the universe and all who live in it, be shaken! Let the rivers clasp their hands, let the mountains rejoice in the presence of the Lord, For He comes, for He comes to judge the earth, to judge the universe righteously and the nations - according to His righteousness!
Psalm 98
Psalm to David.
Psalm of David, 98.
The Lord reigns, let the people be angry: let him mount the Cherubim, let the earth move. The Lord is great in Zion, and is high above all people. Let them confess to Your great name that it is terrible and holy. And the honor of the King loves judgment: You have prepared righteousness, justice and righteousness in Jacob You have created. Lift up the Lord our God, and worship His footstool, for He is holy. Moses and Aaron among His priests, and Samuel among those who call on His name: I call upon the Lord, and He will listen to them. In the pillar of the cloud he said to them: For I have kept His testimony and His commandments which I have given them. Lord our God, you listened to them: God, you were merciful to them, and took vengeance on all their undertakings. Lift up the Lord our God, and worship in His holy mount, for the Lord our God is holy. The Lord reigns; let the nations tremble before Him! Soaring on the Cherubim reigned; let the earth shake! Great is the Lord in Zion, exalted above all nations. Let them praise His great name, for it is terrible and holy! Glory to the King His judgment is right.
You established righteousness, justice and righteousness for Jacob You created. Exalt the Lord our God and worship His footstool, for it is holy! Moses and Aaron are among the company of His priests, and Samuel is among those who call on His name; They called on the Lord, and He listened to them. In the pillar of cloud He spoke to them, for they kept His revelations and His commandments, which He gave them. Lord our God, You listened to them; God, You were merciful to them, but You subjected their opponents to punishment. Exalt the Lord our God and worship Him on His holy mountain; for holy is the Lord our God!
Psalm 99
Psalm to David, in confession.
Psalm of David, praise, 99.
Shout to God, all the earth, work for the Lord in joy, come before Him in joy. Know that the Lord is our God: It is He who created us, not we, but we are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates in confession, into His courts in song: confess to Him, praise His name. For the Lord is good, His mercy endures forever, and His truth endures forever.
Cry out to God, all the earth! Serve the Lord with joy, appear before Him with joy! Know that the Lord is truly our God! He created us, and we did not create Him; we are His people, sheep in His fields. Enter His gates with praise, His courts with singing! Praise Him, praise His name! For the Lord is good, His mercy endures forever, His truth endures from generation to generation.
Psalm 100
Psalm to David.
Psalm of David, 100.
I will sing mercy and judgment to You, Lord. I sing and understand on the path without blame, when will you come to me? I walked in the gentleness of my heart in the midst of my house. I did not present before my eyes a thing that was unlawful: I hated those who committed the crime. Do not my obstinate heart cling to me; I have not known the evil one who turns away from me. He who slanders his sincere secret, I drive him out: with a proud eye and an unsatisfied heart, I do not eat with this. My eyes are on the faithful lands, plant them with me: walk on the blameless path that serves me. If you do not live in the midst of my house, you create pride, you say unrighteousness, and you do not correct yourself in my sight. In the morning, all the sinners of the earth were slaughtered, and all those who practice iniquity consumed from the city of the Lord. I will sing of your mercy and judgment, Lord! I sing and reflect on the immaculate path. When will you visit me? I walked in kindness of my heart under the roof of my house. I turned my gaze away from lawless deeds; I hated people who commit crimes.
The hearts of the treacherous were alien to me; I didn’t want to know the evil ones who betrayed me. Anyone who secretly slanderes his neighbor, I have driven out; He who has a proud eye and a greedy heart has not eaten food with him. My eyes look upon the faithful sons of the earth, may they be with me; Those who walk in the blameless way have served me. No proud man dwelt under the roof of my house; he who spoke wicked words was wrong in my sight. In the morning I destroyed the sinners of the earth, driving out those who committed iniquity from the city of the Lord.
Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
