Psalms 96 Commentary

(96:1-4) Praising God - The psalm writer sings out his praises to God, overwhelmed by all that God has done. When we reflect on God's majesty and his goodness to us, we cannot help telling others about him. We share about our faith in God best when our hearts are full of appreciation for what he has done. God has chosen to use us to "declare his glory. How often do you tell others about God's greatness? !.among all people." Praise for our great God overflows from his creation and should overflow from our lips

Psalm 96

Psalm 96

 1O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.

 2Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.

 3Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

 4For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.

 5For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

 6Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

 7Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

 8Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.

 9O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.

 10Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.

 11Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.

 12Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice

 13Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
