< Psalms 96 >

1 Sing to the LORD a new song. Sing to the LORD, all the earth.
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.
2 Sing to the LORD. Bless his name. Proclaim his salvation from day to day.
Sing to the Lord, bless his name: proclaim his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.
Publish his glory amongst the Gentiles, his wonderful works amongst all people.
4 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised. He is to be feared above all gods.
For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: he is terrible above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens.
For all the gods of the heathen are devils: but the Lord made the heavens.
6 Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
Thanksgiving and beauty are before him: holiness and majesty are in his sanctuary.
7 Ascribe to the LORD, you families of nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
Bring to the Lord, you families of the Gentiles, bring to the Lord glory and honour.
8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
Bring to the Lord the glory [becoming] his name: take offerings, and go into his courts.
9 Worship the LORD in holy array. Tremble before him, all the earth.
Worship the Lord in his holy court: let all the earth tremble before him.
10 Say among the nations, "The LORD reigns." The world is also established. It can't be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity.
Say amongst 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.
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let the sea roar, and its fullness.
Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth exult; let the sea be moved, and the fullness of it.
12 Let the field and all that is in it exult. Then all the trees of the woods shall sing for joy
The plains shall rejoice, and all things in them: then shall all the trees of the wood exult before the presence of the Lord:
13 before the LORD; for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, the peoples with his truth.
for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth; he shall judge the world in righteousness, and the people with his truth.
