Praise to God Who Comes in Judgment

(1 Chr 16:23–33)

1 O 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 revered above all gods.

5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols,

but the Lord made the heavens.

6 Honor 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 holy splendor;

tremble before him, all the earth.

10 Say among the nations, “The Lord is king!

The world is firmly 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 is coming,

for he is coming to judge the earth.

He will judge the world with righteousness,

and the peoples with his truth.
