Psalm 96

¹ Oh sing to the LORD a new song;
sing to the LORD, all the earth!

² Sing to the LORD, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.

³ Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples!

⁴ For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised;
he is to be feared above all gods.

⁵ For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
but the LORD made the heavens.

⁶ Splendor and majesty are before him;
strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

⁷ Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!

⁸ Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
bring an offering, and come into his courts!

⁹ Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness;
tremble before him, all the earth!

¹⁰ Say among the nations, 'The LORD reigns!'
Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved;
he will judge the peoples with equity.

¹¹ Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
let the sea roar, and all that fills it;

¹² let the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy

¹³ before the LORD, for he comes,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
and the peoples in his faithfulness.
