1 Sing to the Lord a new song; ♦︎
sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord and bless his name; ♦︎
tell out his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations ♦︎
and his wonders among all peoples.
4 For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; ♦︎
he is more to be feared than all gods.
5 For all the gods of the nations are but idols; ♦︎
it is the Lord who made the heavens.
6 Honour and majesty are before him; ♦︎
power and splendour are in his sanctuary.
7 Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples; ♦︎
ascribe to the Lord honour and strength.
8 Ascribe to the Lord the honour due to his name; ♦︎
bring offerings and come into his courts.
9 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; ♦︎
let the whole earth tremble before him.
10 Tell it out among the nations that the Lord is king. ♦︎
He has made the world so firm that it cannot be moved;
he will judge the peoples with equity.
11 Let the heavens rejoice and let the earth be glad; ♦︎
let the sea thunder and all that is in it;
12 Let the fields be joyful and all that is in them; ♦︎
let all the trees of the wood shout for joy before the Lord.
13 For he comes, he comes to judge the earth; ♦︎
with righteousness he will judge the world
and the peoples with his truth.
1 The Lord is king: let the earth rejoice; ♦︎
let the multitude of the isles be glad.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about him; ♦︎
righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3 Fire goes before him ♦︎
and burns up his enemies on every side.
4 His lightnings lit up the world; ♦︎
the earth saw it and trembled.
5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, ♦︎
at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 The heavens declared his righteousness, ♦︎
and all the peoples have seen his glory.
7 Confounded be all who worship carved images
and delight in mere idols. ♦︎
Bow down before him, all you gods.
8 Zion heard and was glad, and the daughters of Judah rejoiced, ♦︎
because of your judgements, O Lord.
9 For you, Lord, are most high over all the earth; ♦︎
you are exalted far above all gods.
10 The Lord loves those who hate evil; ♦︎
he preserves the lives of his faithful
and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
11 Light has sprung up for the righteous ♦︎
and joy for the true of heart.
12 Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous, ♦︎
and give thanks to his holy name.

11 For this is the message you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. 12We must not be like Cain who was from the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother’s righteous. 13Do not be astonished, brothers and sisters,* that the world hates you. 14We know that we have passed from death to life because we love one another. Whoever does not love abides in death. 15All who hate a brother or sister* are murderers, and you know that murderers do not have eternal life abiding in them. 16We know love by this, that he laid down his life for us—and we ought to lay down our lives for one another. 17How does God’s love abide in anyone who has the world’s goods and sees a brother or sister* in need and yet refuses help?
