< Psalms 96 >
1 O SING unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.
2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.
Sing to Jehovah, bless His name, Proclaim from day to day His salvation.
3 Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.
Declare among nations His honour, Among all the peoples His wonders.
4 For great is the LORD, and highly to be 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 peoples are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
For all the gods of the peoples [are] nought, And Jehovah made the heavens.
6 Honour 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 Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the peoples, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
8 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.
Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present and come in to His courts.
9 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: tremble before him, all the earth.
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: the world also is stablished that it cannot be moved: he shall judge the peoples with equity.
Say among nations, 'Jehovah hath reigned, Also — established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.'
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;
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 wood 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 shall judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with 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!
