6. Heaven has proclaimed God’s righteousness,and all nations have seen his glory.
7. All those who worship images,those who are proud of idols,are put to shame.All gods bow down to the Lord!
8. Zion has heard and celebrates,the towns of Judah rejoice,because of your acts of justice, Lord,
9. because you, Lord, are the Most Highover all the earth,because you are so superior to all other gods.

12. Rejoice in the Lord, righteous ones!Give thanks to his holy name!
