Psalms 96 / 150
- 1
(Worship in the Splendor of Holiness)
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;
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.
