Psalm 96

Worship in the Splendor of Holiness

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;t
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.

Psalm 96

1 Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song: Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth.

2 Sing unto Jehovah, bless his name; Show forth his salvation from day to day.

3 Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples.

4 For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods.

5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.

6 Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7 Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.

8 Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts.

9 Oh worship Jehovah in holy array: Tremble before him, all the earth.

10 Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth: The world also is established that it cannot 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 the fulness thereof;

12 Let the field exult, and all that is therein; Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy

13 Before Jehovah; for he cometh, For he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with his truth.
