Psalms 96

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

Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.

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

Sing to Jehovah, bless His name, Proclaim from day to day His salvation.

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

Declare among nations His honour, 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] Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He [is] over 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] nought, And Jehovah 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 in His sanctuary.

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

Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.

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

Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present and come in to His courts.

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

Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the honour of holiness, Be afraid of 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 nations, 'Jehovah hath reigned, Also — established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.'

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

The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fulness roar.

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

The field exulteth, and all that [is] in it, Then sing do all trees of the forest,

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 Jehovah, for He hath come, For He hath come to judge the earth. He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the peoples in His faithfulness!
