1 Sing a new song to the  Lord;

let the whole earth sing to the  Lord.  *

2 Sing to the Lord, bless his name;

proclaim his salvation from day to day.  *

3 Declare his glory among the nations,

his wondrous works among all peoples.  *

4 For the Lord is great and is highly praised;

he is feared above all gods.  *

5 For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,

but the Lord made the heavens.  *

6 Splendor and majesty are before him;

strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.  *

7 Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples,

ascribe to the  Lord glory and strength.  *

8 Ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name;  *

bring an offering and enter his courts.  *

9 Worship the  Lord in the splendor of his holiness;  *

let the whole earth tremble before him.  *
