Psalms 96

1 Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth.

Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.

2 Sing to the LORD, bless His name; proclaim His salvation day after day.

Sing to Jehovah, bless His name, Proclaim from day to day His salvation.

3 Declare His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all peoples.

Declare among nations His honour, Among all the peoples His wonders.

4 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.

For great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He [is] over 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] nought, And Jehovah 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 in His sanctuary.

7 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.

8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and enter His courts.

Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present and come in to His courts.

9 Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness; tremble before Him, all the earth.

Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the honour of holiness, Be afraid of His presence, 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 nations, 'Jehovah hath reigned, Also — established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.'

11 Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea resound, and all that fills it.

The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fulness roar.

12 Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

The field exulteth, and all that [is] in it, Then sing do all trees of the forest,

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 Jehovah, for He hath come, For He hath come to judge the earth. He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the peoples in His faithfulness!
