Sing to the Lord, all the earth
(1 Chronicles 16:23-36)
1
Sing to YHWH a new song, || Sing to YHWH all the earth.
2
Sing to YHWH, bless His Name, || Proclaim His salvation from day to day.
3
Declare His glory among nations, || His wonders among all the peoples.
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!
