PSALMS 诗篇096

PSALM¹ 96
1Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord , all the earth.
2Sing to the Lord , praise his name; proclaim his salvation² day after day.
3Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.
4For great is the Lord and most worthy³ of praise; he is to be feared above all gods.
5For all the gods of the nations are idols⁴, but the Lord made the heavens.
6Splendor and majesty⁶ are before him; strength and glory are in his sanctuary⁷.
7Ascribe to the Lord , O families of nations, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
8Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; bring an offering and come into his courts.
9Worship the Lord in the splendor⁵ of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth.
10Say among the nations, "The Lord reigns⁸." The world is firmly established, it cannot be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity⁹.
11Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound¹⁰, and all that is in it;
12let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy;
13they will sing before the Lord , for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his truth.
