before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.
before the Lord, for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness, and the peoples in his faithfulness.

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness; you have loved righteousness and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions;
The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot.
