Psalmorum 96
1 Canticum David, Quando domus aedificabatur post captivitatem. Cantate Domino canticum novum: cantate Domino omnis terra.
A Canticle of David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing to the Lord a new song. Sing to the Lord, all the earth.

For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised. He is terrible, beyond all gods.
5 Quoniam omnes dii Gentium daemonia: Dominus autem caelos fecit.
For all the gods of the Gentiles are demons, but the Lord made the heavens.
6 Confessio, et pulchritudo in conspectu eius: sanctimonia, et magnificentia in sanctificatione eius.
Confession and beauty are in his sight. Sanctity and magnificence are in his sanctuary.
7 Afferte Domino patriae gentium, afferte Domino gloriam et honorem:
Bring to the Lord, you natives of the nations, bring to the Lord glory and honor.
8 afferte Domino gloriam nomini eius. Tollite hostias, et introite in atria eius:

9 adorate Dominum in atrio sancto eius. Commoveatur a facie eius universa terra:
Adore the Lord in his holy court. Let the entire earth be shaken before his face.
10 dicite in Gentibus quia Dominus regnavit. Etenim correxit orbem terrae qui non commovebitur: iudicabit populos in aequitate.
Say among the Gentiles: The Lord has reigned. For he has even corrected the whole world, which will not be shaken. He will judge the peoples with fairness.
11 Laetentur caeli, et exultet terra, commoveatur mare, et plenitudo eius:
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; let the sea and all its fullness be moved.
12 gaudebunt campi, et omnia quae in eis sunt. Tunc exultabunt omnia ligna silvarum
The fields and all the things that are in them will be glad. Then all the trees of the forest will rejoice
13 a facie Domini, quia venit: quoniam venit iudicare terram. Iudicabit orbem terrae in aequitate, et populos in veritate sua.
before the face of the Lord: for he arrives. For he arrives to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with fairness and the peoples with his truth.
