Shout for joy, O heavens;
rejoice, O earth;
burst into song, O mountains!

Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted.


Shout for joy, O heavens! And rejoice, O earth!
Break forth into joyful shouting, O mountains!

Commentary
There are times when you wonder if God really cares about you (v. 14), but He assures you that you are not forgotten. You are His beloved child (v. 15; Ps. 27:10), and He will never forget your name (v. 16). He will gather His family and bring them home (vv. 19-23).
