< Psalms 96 >
1 Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth.
O SING unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
2 Sing to the LORD, bless His name; proclaim His salvation day after day.
Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all peoples.
Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.
4 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.
For great is the LORD, and highly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is the LORD who made the heavens.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
6 Splendor and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty fill His sanctuary.
Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the peoples, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and enter His courts.
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.
9 Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness; tremble before Him, all the earth.
O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: tremble before him, all the earth.
10 Declare among the nations: “The LORD reigns!” The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved; He will judge the peoples with equity.
Say among the nations, The LORD reigneth: the world also is stablished that it cannot be moved: he shall judge the peoples with equity.
11 Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea resound, and all that fills it.
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;
12 Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy
Let the field exult, and all that is therein; then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy;
13 before the LORD, for He is coming— He is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in His faithfulness.
Before the LORD, for he cometh; for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with his truth.
