Now listen to this warning, you kings; learn this lesson, you rulers of the world:

and bow down to him; or else his anger will be quickly aroused, and you will suddenly die. Happy are all who go to him for protection.

All nations will remember the LORD. From every part of the world they will turn to him; all races will worship him.

All proud people will bow down to him; all mortals will bow down before him.

Praise God with shouts of joy, all people!

Say to God, "How wonderful are the things you do! Your power is so great that your enemies bow down in fear before you.

Ambassadors will come from Egypt; the Ethiopians will raise their hands in prayer to God.

Sing to God, kingdoms of the world, sing praise to the Lord,

The kings of Spain and of the islands will offer him gifts; the kings of Sheba and Seba will bring him offerings.

All kings will bow down before him; all nations will serve him.

All the nations that you have created will come and bow down to you; they will praise your greatness.

The nations will fear the LORD; all the kings of the earth will fear his power.

All the kings in the world will praise you, LORD, because they have heard your promises.

They will sing about what you have done and about your great glory.

I help kings to govern and rulers to make good laws.

Every ruler on earth governs with my help, officials and nobles alike.

Kings will be like fathers to you; queens will be like mothers. They will bow low before you and honor you; they will humbly show their respect for you. Then you will know that I am the LORD; no one who waits for my help will be disappointed."

Nations will be drawn to your light, And kings to the dawning of your new day.

The peoples of the world will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their wealth into it.
