Song 96/Praise God—he deserves it

Psa 96:1–13

1 Chr 16:23–33

96Sing a new song to Yahweh.

Let the whole world sing to Yahweh.

2Sing to Yahweh and praise him.

Tell others every day about how he saves us.

3Talk about his greatness to those in other countries.

Tell all the peoples about the incredible things that he’s done,

4because Yahweh is wonderful and should be highly praised.

He should be revered more than all other gods,

5because all the gods of the other nations are just idols,

but it’s Yahweh who made the universe.

6There’s splendour and majesty in his presence.

Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7Give honour to God all you various clans.[ref]

Praise Yahweh for his splendour and strength.

8Give Yahweh the honour that his reputation deserves.

Bring an offering and come into his courtyards.

9Bow down to Yahweh in your best clothes.

Tremble in front of him, all the earth. TOO LITERAL

10Tell all the nations that Yahweh reigns.

He put the planet in its place and nothing will shake it.

He will judge each people group with fairness.

11Let the skies be glad and let the land be happy.

Let the oceans and everything in them roar.

12Let the countryside and everything in it celebrate.

Let the trees in the forest shout with joy

13for Yahweh to see as he arrives,

because he’s coming to judge the earth.

He’ll judge the world with total fairness

and judge all the people with faithfulness.



23Sing to Yahweh everybody.

Every day tell others that he’s saved us.

24Tell the other nations about his power.

Tell all the people groups about the wonderful things he’s done,

25because Yahweh is great and deserves a lot of praise,

and he should be revered more than any other god.

26All those gods of the other people groups are worthless,

^but it was Yahweh who created the heavens.

27His presence emanates splendour and grandeur,

and strength and happiness radiate from his place.


28You people in nations all over the world, praise Yahweh

praise him for his splendour and his strength.

29Praise Yahweh for his great reputation.

Bring an offering and come into his presence.

Worship Yahweh in his splendour and purity.

30Let the entire planet tremble if he comes.

The world is firmly established—it can’t be shaken around.

31Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth shout in celebration,

and let people in all the nations say, “Yahweh is king.”

32Let the oceans roar along with all the creatures in them.

Let the countryside celebrate along with all the creatures that live there.

33Then the trees in the forests should shout happily when Yahweh comes,

because he is coming to judge the world.
