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.

Canticum ipsi David, quando domus ædificabatur post captivitatem. Cantate Domino canticum novum; cantate Domino omnis terra.

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

Cantate Domino, et benedicite nomini ejus; annuntiate de die in diem salutare ejus.

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

Annuntiate inter gentes gloriam ejus; in omnibus populis mirabilia ejus.

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

Quoniam magnus Dominus, et laudabilis nimis: terribilis est super omnes deos.

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

Quoniam omnes dii gentium dæmonia; Dominus autem cælos fecit.

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

Confessio et pulchritudo in conspectu ejus; sanctimonia et magnificentia in sanctificatione ejus.

7 Bring to the Lord, you families of the Gentiles, bring to the Lord glory and honor.

Afferte Domino, patriæ gentium, afferte Domino gloriam et honorem;

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

afferte Domino gloriam nomini ejus. Tollite hostias, et introite in atria ejus;

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

adorate Dominum in atrio sancto ejus. Commoveatur a facie ejus universa terra;

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.

dicite in gentibus, quia Dominus regnavit. Etenim correxit orbem terræ, qui non commovebitur; judicabit populos in æquitate.

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

Lætentur cæli, et exsultet terra; commoveatur mare et plenitudo ejus;

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:

gaudebunt campi, et omnia quæ in eis sunt. Tunc exsultabunt omnia ligna silvarum

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

a facie Domini, quia venit, quoniam venit judicare terram. Judicabit orbem terræ in æquitate, et populos in veritate sua.
