Psalms 96

1 When the house was built after the Captivity, a Song of David. Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.

請眾齊向上主歌唱新歌，普世大地請向上主謳歌！

2 Sing to the Lord, bless his name: proclaim his salvation from day to day.

請向上主歌唱，讚美祂的聖名，一日復一日地宣揚祂的救恩。

3 Publish his glory among the Gentiles, his wonderful works among all people.

請在列邦中傳述上主的光榮，請在萬民中宣揚祂的奇功。

4 For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: he is terrible above all gods.

因為上主偉大，應受讚美，惟祂超越眾神，可敬可畏。

5 For all the gods of the heathen are devils: but the Lord made the heavens.

萬邦的眾神盡屬虛幻，但上主卻造成了蒼天；

6 Thanksgiving and beauty are before him: holiness and majesty are in his sanctuary.

威嚴與尊榮，常在祂的面前，權能與光耀，圍繞在祂的聖壇。

7 Bring to the Lord, ye families of the Gentiles, bring to the Lord glory and honour.

各民各族，請將光榮歸於上主，各家各戶，請將威能歸於上主。

8 Bring to the Lord the glory [becoming] his name: take offerings, and go into his courts.

請將光榮歸於上主！請進入祂的庭院奉獻祭物。

9 Worship the Lord in his holy court: let all the earth tremble before him.

請穿聖潔的禮服，叩拜上主；普世大地，要在祂面前顫抖！

10 Say among the heathen, The Lord reigns: for he has established the world so that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people in righteousness.

請在萬民中高呼：上主為王！穩定寰宇，使它不再動盪，祂以正義公道治理萬邦。

11 Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth exult; let the sea be moved, and the fullness of it.

願諸天歡樂，願大地踴躍，願海洋及其中的一切怒號！

12 The plains shall rejoice, and all things in them: then shall all the trees of the wood exult before the presence of the Lord:

原野及其中的一切都要舞蹈，森林中的一切樹木各顯歡樂，

13 for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth; he shall judge the world in righteousness, and the people with his truth.

在上主面前歡樂，因為祂己駕臨，因為祂己駕臨，要統治大地乾坤；祂要以正義審判普世人群，以祂的忠信治理天下萬民。
