Psalms 96:4-13 ▼

4 For YHWH [is] great, and greatly praised, || He [is] fearful over all gods.

5 For all the gods of the peoples [are] nothing, || And YHWH made the heavens.

6 Splendor and majesty [are] before Him, || Strength and beauty in His sanctuary.

7 Ascribe to YHWH, O families of the peoples, || Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength.

8 Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, || Lift up a present and come into His courts.

9 Bow yourselves to YHWH, || In the honor of holiness, || Be afraid of His presence, all the earth.

10 Say among nations, “YHWH has reigned, || Also—the world is established, unmoved, || He judges the peoples in uprightness.”

11 The heavens rejoice, and the earth is joyful, || The sea and its fullness roar.

12 The field exults, and all that [is] in it, || Then all trees of the forest sing,

13 Before YHWH, for He has come, || For He has come to judge the earth. He judges the world in righteousness, || And the peoples in His faithfulness!
