Psalm 96
O sing to the Lord a new song
: sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Sing to the Lord and bless his holy name
: proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day.
Declare his glory among the nations
: and his wonders among all peoples.
For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised
: he is more to be feared than all gods.
As for all the gods of the nations, they are mere idols
: it is the Lord who made the heavens.
Majesty and glory are before him
: beauty and power are in his sanctuary.
Render to the Lord, you families of the nations
: render to the Lord glory and might.
Render to the Lord the honour due to his name
: bring offerings and come into his courts.
O worship the Lord in the beauty of his holiness
: let the whole earth stand in awe of him.
Say among the nations that the Lord is king
: he has made the world so firm that it can never be moved;
and he shall judge the peoples with equity.
Let the heavens rejoice and let the earth be glad
: let the sea roar, and all that fills it:
Let the fields rejoice, and everything in them
: then shall all the trees of the wood
shout with joy before the Lord;
For he comes, he comes to judge the earth
: he shall judge the world with righteousness,
and the peoples with his truth.
