Psalm 96
1 Sing to the Lord a new song: sing
all th’ earth the Lord unto.
2 Sing to Jehovah, bless his name,
still his salvation show.
3 To th’ heathen his glory, to all
people his wonders spread.
4 For great’s the Lord, much to be prais’d,
above all gods in dread.
5 Because vain idols are they all
which heathen’s gods do name:
but yet Jehovah he it is
that did the heavens frame.
6 Honour and comely majesty
abide before his face:
both fortitude and beauty are
within his holy place.
7 Ye kindreds of the people all
unto the Lord afford,
glory and mightiness also
give ye unto the Lord.
8 The glory due unto his name
give ye the Lord unto;
offer ye an oblation,
enter his courts also.
9 In beauty of his holiness
do ye the Lord adore:
the universal earth likewise
in fear stand him before.
10 ‘Mong heathens say, Jehovah reigns:
the world in stableness
shall be, unmov’d also: he shall
judge folk in righteousness.
11 O let the heav’ns thereat be glad,
and let the earth rejoice:
O let the sea, and its fullness
with roaring make a noise.
12 O let the field be full of joy,
and all things there about:
then all the trees that be i’th wood
they joyfully shall shout.
13 Before Jehovah, for he comes,
he comes earth’s judge to be:
the world with justice, and the folk
judge with his truth shall he.
