6With trumpets and the sound of a horn; Shout joyfully before the LORD, the King.

7Let the sea roar, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell in it;

7Let the sea and everything in it shout, along with the world and its inhabitants;

8Let the rivers clap their hands; Let the hills be joyful together

8let the rivers clap their hands in unison; and let the mountains sing for joy

9 before the LORD, For He is coming to judge the earth. With righteousness He shall judge the world, And the peoples with equity.

9in the LORD's presence, who comes to judge the earth; He'll judge the world righteously; and its people fairly.
