Settings

21 He permitted no man to oppress them, And 1He reproved kings for their sakes, saying,
22 "Do not touch My anointed ones, And 2do My prophets no harm."
23 3Sing to the LORD, all the earth; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.
24 Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
25 For 4great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He also is 5to be feared above all gods.
26 For all the gods of the peoples are 6idols, 7But the LORD made the heavens.
27 Splendor and majesty are before Him, Strength and joy are in His place.
28 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
29 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and come before Him; 8Worship the LORD in holy array.
30 Tremble before * Him, all the earth; Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved.
31 9Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; And let them say among the nations, "10The LORD reigns."
