Psalm 96:1-13
96 Sing to Jehovah a new song.+
Sing to Jehovah, all the earth!+
2 Sing to Jehovah; praise his name.
Proclaim the good news of his salvation day after day.+
3 Declare his glory among the nations,His wonderful works among all the peoples.+
4 Jehovah is great and most worthy of praise.
He is more awe-inspiring than all other gods.
5 All the gods of the peoples are worthless gods,+But Jehovah is the one who made the heavens.+
6 In his presence are majesty* and splendor;+Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.+
7 Give Jehovah his due, you families of the peoples,Give Jehovah his due for his glory and strength.+
8 Give Jehovah the glory due his name;+Bring a gift and come into his courtyards.
9 Bow down to* Jehovah in holy adornment;*Tremble before him, all the earth!
10 Declare among the nations: “Jehovah has become King!+
The earth* is firmly established, it cannot be moved.*
He will judge* the peoples fairly.”+
11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be joyful;Let the sea thunder and all that fills it;+
12 Let the fields and everything in them rejoice.+
At the same time let all the trees of the forest shout joyfully+
13 Before Jehovah, for he is coming,*He is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the inhabited earth* with righteousness+And the peoples with his faithfulness.+
