Psalm 96

PSALM 96

Ascribe to Yahweh Glory and Strength

^1aSing to Yahweh a ^bnew song;

Sing to Yahweh, all the earth.

²Sing to Yahweh, bless His name;

^aProclaim good news of His salvation from day to day.

³Recount ^aHis glory among the nations,

His wondrous deeds among all the peoples.

⁴For ^agreat is Yahweh and ^bgreatly to be praised;

He is ¹more ^2cfearsome ^dthan all gods.

⁵For ^aall the gods of the peoples are ¹idols,

But ^bYahweh made the heavens.

^6aSplendor and majesty are before Him,

Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

⁷¹Ascribe to Yahweh, O ^afamilies of the peoples,

^2bAscribe to Yahweh glory and strength.

⁸Ascribe to Yahweh the ^aglory of His name;

Lift up ¹an ^boffering and come into His courts.

^9aWorship Yahweh in the splendor of holiness;

^bTremble before Him, all the earth.

¹⁰Say among the nations, “^aYahweh ¹reigns;

Indeed, the ^bworld is established, it will not be shaken;

He will ^crender justice to the peoples with ²equity.”

¹¹Let the ^aheavens be glad, and let the ^bearth rejoice;

Let ^cthe sea ¹roar, as well as its fullness;

¹²Let the ^afield exult, and all that is in it.

Then all the ^btrees of the forest will sing for joy

¹³Before Yahweh, ^afor He is coming,

For He is coming to judge the earth.

^bHe will judge the world in righteousness

And the peoples in His faithfulness.
