Mazmur 96:11
Konteks96:11 Let the sky rejoice, and the earth be happy!
Let the sea and everything in it shout!
Yesaya 44:23
Konteks44:23 Shout for joy, O sky, for the Lord intervenes; 1
shout out, you subterranean regions 2 of the earth.
O mountains, give a joyful shout;
you too, O forest and all your trees! 3
For the Lord protects 4 Jacob;
he reveals his splendor through Israel. 5
