A Call to Worship the LORD the Righteous Judge.

Psa 96:1

Sing to the LORD a new song;

Sing to the LORD, all the earth.

Sing to the LORD, bless His name;

Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.

Tell of His glory among the nations,

His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.

Psa 96:4

For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised;

He is to be feared above all gods.

Psa 96:5

For all the gods of the peoples are [fn]idols,

But the LORD made the heavens.

Psa 96:6

Splendor and majesty are before Him,

Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

Psa 96:7

[fn]Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples,

[fn]Ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

Psa 96:8

[fn]Ascribe to the LORD the glory of His name;

Bring an [fn]offering and come into His courtyards.

Psa 96:9

Worship the LORD in [fn]holy attire;

Tremble before Him, all the earth.

Psa 96:10

Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns;

Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved;

He will judge the peoples fairly.”

Psa 96:11

May the heavens be joyful, and may the earth rejoice;

May the sea [fn]roar, and [fn]all it contains;

Psa 96:12

May the field be jubilant, and all that is in it.

Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

Psa 96:13

Before the LORD, for He is coming,

For He is coming to judge the earth.

He will judge the world in righteousness,

And the peoples in His faithfulness.
