2 Sing to theLord, praise his name;(D)
proclaim his salvation(E)day after day.
3 Declare his glory(F)among the nations,

4 For great is theLordand most worthy of praise;(H)
he is to be feared(I)above all gods.(J)
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols,(K)
but theLordmade the heavens.(L)
6 Splendor and majesty(M)are before him;
strength and glory(N)are in his sanctuary.

7 Ascribe to theLord,(O)all you families of nations,(P)
ascribe to theLordglory and strength.
8 Ascribe to theLordthe glory due his name;
bring an offering(Q)and come into his courts.(R)
9 Worship theLord(S)in the splendor of his[a]holiness;(T)
tremble(U)before him, all the earth.(V)
10 Say among the nations, “TheLordreigns.(W)”
The world is firmly established,(X)it cannot be moved;(Y)
he will judge(Z)the peoples with equity.(AA)

11 Let the heavens rejoice,(AB)let the earth be glad;(AC)
let the sea resound, and all that is in it.
12 Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them;
let all the trees of the forest(AD)sing for joy.(AE)
13 Let all creation rejoice before theLord, for he comes,
he comes to judge(AF)the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness(AG)
and the peoples in his faithfulness.(AH)
