Worshipthe LORDwith reverenceAnd rejoicewith trembling.
A Godgreatlyfearedin the councilof the holyones,And awesomeaboveallthose who are aroundHim?
The LORDreigns,let the earthrejoice;Let the manyislandsbe glad.
The LORDreigns,let the peoplestremble;He is enthroned[above] the cherubim,let the earthshake!
So then,my beloved,justas you have alwaysobeyed,not as in my presenceonly,but nowmuchmorein my absence,workout your salvationwith fearand trembling;
Seeto it that you do not refuseHim who is speaking.For ifthosedid not escapewhen they refusedhim who warned[them] on earth,muchless[will] we [escape] who turn awayfrom Him who [warns] from heaven.
