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 joy before 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.
