PSALM 96
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1O sing a new song to the Lord:
sing all the earth to God.
2To God sing, bless his name, shew still
his saving health abroad.
3Among the heathen nations
his glory do declare;
And unto all the people shew
his works that wondrous are.
4For great's the Lord,
and greatly he is to be magnify'd;
Yea, worthy to be fear'd is he
above all gods beside.
5For all the gods are idols dumb,
which blinded nations fear;
But our God is the Lord, by whom
the heav'ns created were.
6Great honour is before his face,
and majesty divine;
Strength is within his holy place,
and there doth beauty shine.
7Do ye ascribe unto the Lord,
of people ev'ry tribe,
Glory do ye unto the Lord,
and mighty pow'r ascribe.
8Give ye the glory to the Lord
that to his name is due;
Come ye into his courts, and bring
an offering with you.
9In beauty of his holiness,
O do the Lord adore;
Likewise let all the earth throughout
tremble his face before.
10Among the heathen say, God reigns;
the world shall stedfastly
Be fix'd from moving; he shall judge
the people righteously.
11Let heav'ns be glad before the Lord,
and let the earth rejoice;
Let seas, and all that is therein,
cry out, and make a noise.
12Let fields rejoice, and ev'ry thing
that springeth of the earth:
Then woods and ev'ry tree shall sing
with gladness and with mirth
13Before the Lord; because he comes,
to judge the earth comes he:
He'll judge the world with righteousness,
the people faithfully.

Psalms 96
96
Yahweh the King Comes in Judgment
1Sing to#Or “concerning” Yahweh a new song;
sing to#Or “concerning” Yahweh, all the earth.
2Sing to#Or “concerning” Yahweh; bless his name.
Announce#Or “bring good news concerning” his salvation from day to day.
3Tell his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples.
4For Yahweh is great and very worthy of praise;
he is to be feared above all gods.
5For all the gods of the peoples are idols,#This word for idols suggests something worthless or insignificant
but Yahweh made the heavens.
6Splendor and majesty are before him;
strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7Ascribe to Yahweh, you families of the peoples,
ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.
8Ascribe to Yahweh the glory due his name;
bring an offering and come into his courts.
9Worship Yahweh in holy array;
tremble before him, all the earth.
10Say among the nations, “Yahweh is king!
Yes, the world is established so that it will not be moved.
He will judge the peoples fairly.”
11Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice.
Let the sea with#Hebrew “and” its fullness roar.
12Let the field with#Hebrew “and” all that is in it exult.
Then all the trees of the forests will sing for joy
13before Yahweh, for he is coming;
for he is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness,
and the peoples with his faithfulness.
