PSALM 96

Sing praises unto the Lord-Declare his name among the heathen-Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness-He cometh to judge his people and the world.

  1 O SING unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth.

  2 Sing unto the Lord, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.

  3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

  4 For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: 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 Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

  7 Give unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.

  8 Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.

  9 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.

  10 Say among the heathen that the Lord reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.

  11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.

  12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice

  13 Before the Lord: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
