Chapter 95Chapter 97

1Psalm 96 Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.

2Sing to the Lord, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day.

3Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

4For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above all gods.

5For all the gods of the nations are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.

6Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and glory are in his sanctuary.

7Ascribe to the Lord, O families of nations, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

8Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; bring an offering and come into his courts.

9Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth.

10Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.” The world is firmly established, it cannot be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity.

11Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it;

12let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy;

13they will sing before the Lord, for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his truth.
