Psalms 96

1 Singe ye a newe song to the Lord; al erthe, synge ye to the Lord.

Sing to the LORD a new song! Sing to the LORD, all the earth.

2 Synge ye to the Lord, and blesse ye his name; telle ye his heelthe fro dai in to dai.

Sing to the LORD! Bless his name! Proclaim his salvation from day to day!

3 Telle ye his glorie among hethene men; hise merueilis among alle puplis.

Declare his glory amongst the nations, his marvellous works amongst all the peoples.

4 For the Lord is greet, and worthi to be preisid ful myche; he is ferdful aboue alle goddis.

For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised! He is to be feared above all gods.

5 For alle the goddis of hethene men ben feendis; but the Lord made heuenes.

For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens.

6 Knouleching and fairnesse is in his siyt; hoolynesse and worthi doyng is in his halewing.

Honour and majesty are before him. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7 Ye cuntrees of hethene men, brynge to the Lord, bringe ye glorye and onour to the Lord;

Ascribe to the LORD, you families of nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

8 bringe ye to the Lord glorie to hys name. Take ye sacrificis, and entre ye in to the hallis of hym;

Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come into his courts.

9 herie ye the Lord in his hooli halle. Al erthe be moued of his face;

Worship the LORD in holy array. Tremble before him, all the earth.

10 seie ye among hethene men, that the Lord hath regned. And he hath amendid the world, that schal not be moued; he schal deme puplis in equite.

Say amongst the nations, “The LORD reigns.” The world is also established. It can’t be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity.

11 Heuenes be glad, and the erthe make ful out ioye, the see and the fulnesse therof be moued togidere; feeldis schulen make ioye,

Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let the sea roar, and its fullness!

12 and alle thingis that ben in tho. Thanne alle the trees of wodis schulen make ful out ioye, for the face of the Lord, for he cometh;

Let the field and all that is in it exult! Then all the trees of the woods shall sing for joy

13 for he cometh to deme the erthe. He schal deme the world in equite; and puplis in his treuthe.

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.
