Psalms 96

A Song of Praise to God Coming in Judgment
1Oh, #1 Chr. 16:23–33sing to the Lord a new song!
Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.
3Declare His glory among the nations,
His wonders among all peoples.
4For #Ps. 145:3the Lord is great and #Ps. 18:3greatly to be praised;
#Ps. 95:3He is to be feared above all gods.
5For #1 Chr. 16:26; (Jer. 10:11)all the gods of the peoples are idols,
#Ps. 115:15; Is. 42:5But the Lord made the heavens.
6Honor and majesty are before Him;
Strength and #Ps. 29:2beauty are in His sanctuary.
7#1 Chr. 16:28, 29; Ps. 29:1, 2Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
Give to the Lord glory and strength.
8Give to the Lord the glory due His name;
Bring an offering, and come into His courts.
9Oh, worship the Lord #1 Chr. 16:29; 2 Chr. 20:21; Ps. 29:2in the beauty of holiness!
Tremble before Him, all the earth.
10Say among the nations, #Ps. 93:1; 97:1; (Rev. 11:15; 19:6)“The Lord reigns;
The world also is firmly established,
It shall not be moved;
#Ps. 67:4He shall judge the peoples righteously.”
11#Ps. 69:34; Is. 49:13Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;
#Ps. 98:7Let the sea roar, and all its fullness;
12Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it.
Then all the trees of the woods will rejoice before the Lord.
13For He is coming, for He is coming to judge the earth.
#(Rev. 19:11)He shall judge the world with righteousness,
And the peoples with His truth.

Psalms 96
96
King of the World
1Go ahead—sing your new song to the Lord!
Let everyone in every language sing him a new song. # 96:1 Every new thing God does requires a new song to make it known.
2-3Don’t stop! Keep on singing! Make his name famous!
Tell everyone every day how wonderful he is.
Give them the good news of our great Savior.
Take the message of his glory and miracles to every nation.
Tell them about all the amazing things he has done.
4For the Lord’s greatness is beyond description,
and he deserves all the praise that comes to him.
He is our King-God, and it’s right to be in holy awe of him.
5Other gods # 96:5 The Septuagint reads “demons.” are absolutely worthless.
For the Lord God is Creator-God,
who spread the splendor of the skies!
6Breathtaking brilliance and awe-inspiring majesty
radiate from his shining presence.
His stunning beauty overwhelms all who come before him. # 96:6 Or “Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.”
7Surrender to the Lord Yahweh, all you nations and peoples.
Surrender to him all your pride and strength.
8Confess that Yahweh alone deserves all the glory and honor.
Bring an offering and come celebrate in his courts.
9Come worship the Lord God wearing the splendor of holiness.
Let everyone wait in wonder as they tremble in awe before him.
10Tell the nations plainly that Yahweh rules over all!
He is doing a great job, and nothing will disrupt him,
for he treats everyone fair and square.
11-12Let the skies sing for joy! Let the earth join in the chorus.
Let oceans thunder and fields echo this ecstatic praise
until every swaying tree of every forest joins in,
lifting up their songs of joyous praise to him!
13For here he comes, the Lord God,
and he’s ready to judge the world.
He will do what’s right and can be trusted
to always do what’s fair.
