• Psalm 96

  • 1 Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.
  • 2 Sing to the Lord, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day.
  • 3 Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.
  • 4 For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above all gods.
  • 5 For all the gods of the nations are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.
  • 6 Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and glory are in his sanctuary.
  • 7 Ascribe to the Lord, all you families of nations, 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 his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth.
  • 10 Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.” The world is firmly established, it cannot be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity.
  • 11 Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it.
  • 12 Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them; let all the trees of the forest sing for joy.
  • 13 Let all creation rejoice before the Lord, for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his faithfulness.
