Psalms 96
- 1
Sing to the Lord a new song. Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
- 2
Sing to the Lord. Praise his name. Announce every day how he delivers.
- 3
Tell the nations about his splendor. Tell all the nations about his amazing deeds.
- 4
For the Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise; he is more awesome than all gods.
- 5
For all the gods of the nations are worthless, but the Lord made the sky.
- 6
Majestic splendor emanates from him; his sanctuary is firmly established and beautiful.
- 7
Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the nations, ascribe to the Lord splendor and strength.
- 8
Ascribe to the Lord the splendor he deserves. Bring an offering and enter his courts.
- 9
Worship the Lord in holy attire. Tremble before him, all the earth.
- 10
Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns! The world is established; it cannot be moved. He judges the nations fairly.”
- 11
Let the sky rejoice, and the earth be happy. Let the sea and everything in it shout.
- 12
Let the fields and everything in them celebrate. Then let the trees of the forest shout with joy
- 13
before the Lord, for he comes. For he comes to judge the earth. He judges the world fairly and the nations in accordance with his justice.
