96 ^(A)Oh sing to the Lord ^(B)a new song;
    sing to the Lord, all the earth!
² Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
    ^(C)tell of his salvation from day to day.
³ Declare his glory among the nations,
    his marvellous works among all the peoples!
⁴ For ^(D)great is the Lord, and ^(E)greatly to be praised;
    he is to be feared above ^(F)all gods.
⁵ For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
    but the Lord ^(G)made the heavens.
⁶ Splendour and majesty are before him;
    ^(H)strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
⁷ Ascribe to the Lord, O ^(I)families of the peoples,
    ^(J)ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
⁸ Ascribe to the Lord ^(K)the glory due his name;
    bring ^(L)an offering, and ^(M)come into his courts!
⁹ Worship the Lord in ^(N)the splendour of holiness;^{[a]
    (O)}tremble before him, all the earth!
¹⁰ Say among the nations, ^(P)“The Lord reigns!
    Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved;
    he will ^(Q)judge the peoples with equity.”
¹¹ Let ^(R)the heavens be glad, and let ^(S)the earth rejoice;
    let ^(T)the sea roar, and all that fills it;
¹²     let ^(U)the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all ^(V)the trees of the forest sing for joy
¹³     before the Lord, for he comes,
    for he comes ^(W)to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
    and the peoples in his faithfulness.
