Psalm 96
1Sing to the LORD a new song!
Sing to the LORD, all the earth!
2Sing to the LORD! Bless his name!
Share the news of his saving work every single day!
3Declare God’s glory among the nations;
declare his wondrous works among all people
4because the LORD is great and so worthy of praise.
He is awesome beyond all other gods
5because all the gods of the nations are just idols,
but it is the LORD who created heaven!
6Greatness and grandeur are in front of him;
strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7Give to the LORD, all families of the nations—
give to the LORD glory and power!
8Give to the LORD the glory due his name!
Bring gifts!
Enter his courtyards!
9Bow down to the LORD in his holy splendor!
Tremble before him, all the earth!
10Tell the nations, “The LORD rules!
Yes, he set the world firmly in place;#96.10 LXX, Vulg; MT the world is firmly established; cf Ps 93:1
it won’t be shaken.
He will judge all people fairly.”
11Let heaven celebrate! Let the earth rejoice!
Let the sea and everything in it roar!
12Let the countryside and everything in it celebrate!
Then all the trees of the forest too
will shout out joyfully
13before the LORD because he is coming!
He is coming to establish justice on the earth!
He will establish justice in the world rightly.
He will establish justice among all people fairly.

Psalms 96
96
Sing a New Song to the Lord
1Sing a new song to the Lord!
Everyone on this earth,
sing praises to the Lord,
2sing and praise his name.
Day after day announce,
“The Lord has saved us!”
3Tell every nation on earth,
“The Lord is wonderful
and does marvelous things!
4The Lord is great and deserves
our greatest praise!
He is the only God
worthy of our worship.
5Other nations worship idols,
but the Lord created
the heavens.
6Give honor and praise
to the Lord,
whose power and beauty
fill his holy temple.”
7 #
Ps 29.1,2. Tell everyone of every nation,
“Praise the glorious power
of the Lord.
8He is wonderful! Praise him
and bring an offering
into his temple.
9Everyone on earth, now tremble
and worship the Lord,
majestic and holy.”
10Announce to the nations,
“The Lord is King!
The world stands firm,
never to be shaken,
and he will judge its people
with fairness.”
11Tell the heavens and the earth
to be glad and celebrate!
Command the ocean to roar
with all its creatures
12and the fields to rejoice
with all their crops.
Then every tree in the forest
will sing joyful songs
13to the Lord.
He is coming to judge
all people on earth
with fairness and truth.
