| Chapter 96 |
1 | O make a new song to the Lord; let all the earth make melody to the Lord. |
2 | Make songs to the Lord, blessing his name; give the good news of his salvation day by day. |
3 | Make clear his glory to the nations, and his wonders to all the peoples. |
4 | For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised; he is more to be feared than all other gods. |
5 | For all the gods of the nations are false gods; but the Lord made the heavens. |
6 | Honour and glory are before him: strong and fair is his holy place. |
7 | Give to the Lord, O you families of the peoples, give to the Lord glory and strength. |
8 | Give to the Lord the glory of his name; take with you an offering and come into his house. |
9 | O give worship to the Lord in holy robes; be in fear before him, all the earth. |
10 | Say among the nations, The Lord is King; yes, the world is ordered so that it may not be moved; he will be an upright judge of the peoples. |
11 | Let the heavens have joy and the earth be glad; let the sea be thundering with all its waters; |
12 | Let the field be glad, and everything which is in it; yes, let all the trees of the wood be sounding with joy, |
13 | Before the Lord, for he is come; he is come to be the judge of the earth; the earth will be judged in righteousness, and the peoples with unchanging faith. |
