< Psalms 96 >
1 O sing to the LORD a new song: sing to the LORD, all the earth.
Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.
2 Sing to the LORD, bless his name; show 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 heathen, his wonders among all people.
Declare among nations His honour, Among all the peoples His wonders.
4 For the LORD is great, and greatly 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 nations 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 to the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give to the LORD glory and strength.
Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
8 Give to the LORD the glory due to 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: fear 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 heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.
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, and all it containeth.
The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fulness roar.
12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it: then shall all the trees of the forest rejoice
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 people 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!
