Psalms 96

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

O sing to the LORD a new song: sing to the LORD, all the earth.

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

Sing to the LORD, bless his name; show forth his salvation from day to day.

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

Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

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

For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared 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 nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

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

Honour 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 the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give to the LORD 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 the LORD the glory due to his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.

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

O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, 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 heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.

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 let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and all it containeth.

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

Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it: then shall all the trees of the forest rejoice

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 the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
