Psalm 96

Psalm 96

96:1-13^pp — 1Ch 16:23–33

Sing to the Lord^a a new song;^b

sing to the Lord, all the earth.

Sing to the Lord, praise his name;^c

proclaim his salvation^d day after day.

Declare his glory^e among the nations,

his marvelous deeds^f among all peoples.

For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;^g

he is to be feared^h above all gods.ⁱ

For all the gods of the nations are idols,^j

but the Lord made the heavens.^k

Splendor and majesty^l are before him;

strength and glory^m are in his sanctuary.

Ascribe to the Lord,ⁿ all you families of nations,^o

ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;

bring an offering^p and come into his courts.^q

Worship the Lord^r in the splendor of his holiness;^s

tremble^t before him, all the earth.^u

Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.^v”

The world is firmly established,^w it cannot be moved;^x

he will judge^y the peoples with equity.^z

Let the heavens rejoice,^a let the earth be glad;^b

let the sea resound, and all that is in it.

Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them;

let all the trees of the forest^c sing for joy.^d

Let all creation rejoice before the Lord, for he comes,

he comes to judge^e the earth.

He will judge the world in righteousness^f

and the peoples in his faithfulness.^g
