Say among the heathen that the Lord reigneth;

The world also shall he established that it shall not be moved;

He shall judge the people righteously.

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;

Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof.

Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein;

Then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord;

For he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth:

He shall judge the world with righteousness,

And the people with his truth."—Psalm 96:9-13.
