Psalms 96
1 (95-1) <A canticle for David himself, when the house was built after the captivity.> Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: sing to the Lord, all the earth.2 (95-2) Sing ye to the Lord and bless his name: shew forth his salvation from day to day.3 (95-3) Declare his glory among the Gentiles: his wonders among all people.4 (95-4) For the Lord is great, and exceedingly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.5 (95-5) For all the gods of the Gentiles are devils: but the Lord made the heavens.6 (95-6) Praise and beauty are before him: holiness and majesty in his sanctuary.7 (95-7) Bring ye to the Lord, O ye kindreds of the Gentiles, bring ye to the Lord glory and honour:8 (95-8) Bring to the Lord glory unto his name. Bring up sacrifices, and come into his courts:9 (95-9) Adore ye the Lord in his holy court. Let all the earth be moved at his presence.
10 (95-10) Say ye among the Gentiles, the Lord hath reigned. For he hath corrected the world, which shall not be moved: he will judge the people with justice.11 (95-11) Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad, let the sea be moved, and the fulness thereof:12 (95-12) The fields and all things that are in them shall be joyful. Then shall all the trees of the woods rejoice13 (95-13) before the face of the Lord, because he cometh: because he cometh to judge the earth. He shall judge the world with justice, and the people with his truth.
