Psalms 96

1 A canticle for David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: sing to the Lord, all the earth.

Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song: Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth.

2 Sing ye to the Lord and bless his name: shew forth his salvation from day to day.

Sing unto Jehovah, bless his name; Show forth his salvation from day to day.

3 Declare his glory among the Gentiles: his wonders among all people.

Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples.

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

For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods.

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

For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.

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

Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7 Bring ye to the Lord, O ye kindreds of the Gentiles, bring ye to the Lord glory and honour:

Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.

8 Bring to the Lord glory unto his name. Bring up sacrifices, and come into his courts:

Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts.

9 Adore ye the Lord in his holy court. Let all the earth be moved at his presence.

Oh worship Jehovah in holy array: Tremble before him, all the earth.

10 Say ye among the Gentiles, the Lord hath reigned. For he hath corrected the world, which shall not be moved: he will judge the people with justice.

Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved: He will judge the peoples with equity.

11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad, let the sea be moved, and the fulness thereof:

Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;

12 The fields and all things that are in them shall be joyful. Then shall all the trees of the woods rejoice

Let the field exult, and all that is therein; Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy

13 Before the face of the Lord, because he cometh: because he cometh to judge the earth. He shall judge the world with justice, and the people with his truth.

Before Jehovah; for he cometh, For he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with his truth.
