Psalm 96 Cantate Domino

1 Sing to the LORD a new song; *sing to the LORD, all the whole earth.
2 Sing to the LORD and bless his Name; *proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day.

3 Declare his glory among the nations *and his wonders among all peoples.
4 For great is the LORD and greatly to be praised; *he is more to be feared than all gods.

5 As for all the gods of the nations, they are but idols; *but it is the LORD who made the heavens.
6 Oh, the majesty and magnificence of his presence! *Oh, the power and the splendor of his sanctuary!

7 Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples; *ascribe to the LORD honor and power.
8 Ascribe to the LORD the honor due his Name; *bring offerings and come into his courts.

9 Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness; *let the whole earth tremble before him.
10 Tell it out among the nations: "The LORD is King! *he has made the world so firm that it cannot be moved;he will judge the peoples with equity."

11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;let the sea thunder and all that is in it; *let the field be joyful and all that is therein.
12 Then shall all the trees of the wood shout for joybefore the LORD when he comes, *when he comes to judge the earth.

13 He will judge the world with righteousness *and the peoples with his truth.
