His lightnings light up the world; * the earth sees it and is afraid.

The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the, * at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

Rejoice in the, you righteous, * and give thanks to his holy Name.

Sing to the a new song, * for he has done marvelous things.
