Psalms 96

1 Oh sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the lands.

Sing to Yahweh, a song that is new, Sing to Yahweh, all the earth;

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

Sing to Yahweh, bless ye his Name, —Tell the tidings, from day to day, of his salvation:

3 Relate among the nations his honor, among all the people his wonders.

Recount, Among the nations, his glory, Among all the peoples, his wonders.

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

For great is Yahweh, and worthy to be mightily praised, To be revered is he above all gods;

5 For all the gods of the nations are idols; but the Lord hath made the heavens.

For, all the gods of the peoples, are things of nought—But, Yahweh, made, the heavens.

6 Glory and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

Praise and majesty, are before him, Strength and beauty, are in his sanctuary.

7 Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye families of the people, ascribe unto the Lord honor and strength.

Give to Yahweh, ye families of the peoples, Give to Yahweh, glory and strength;

8 Ascribe unto the Lord the honor [due unto] his name: bear hither a present, and come unto his courts.

Give to Yahweh, the glory of his Name, Bring a present, and enter his courts;

9 Bow down unto the Lord in the beauty of holiness: tremble before him, all ye lands.

Bow down to Yahweh, in the adornment of holiness, Be in anguish at his presence, all the earth!

10 Say among the nations, “The Lord reigneth;” [therefore] also the world is ever firmly established that it shall hot be moved: he will judge the people in equity.

Say among the nations, Yahweh, hath become King, Surely he hath fixed the world, it shall not be shaken, He will judge the peoples with equity.

11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad: let the sea roar, with all that filleth it.

Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth exult, Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;

12 Let the field exult, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy,

Let the field, leap for joy, and all that is therein, Then, shall all the trees of the forest, shout in triumph,

13 Before the Lord; for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and people in his truth.

Before Yahweh, for he is coming, For he is coming to judge the earth, —He will judge the world, in righteousness, And the peoples, in his faithfulness.
