Psalm 93
Dominus regnavit
1
The Lord is King;
he has put on splendid apparel; *
the Lord has put on his apparel
and girded himself with strength.
2
He has made the whole world so sure *
that it cannot be moved;
3
Ever since the world began, your throne has been established; *
you are from everlasting.
4
The waters have lifted up, O Lord,
the waters have lifted up their voice; *
the waters have lifted up their pounding waves.
5
Mightier than the sound of many waters,
mightier than the breakers of the sea, *
mightier is the Lord who dwells on high.
6
Your testimonies are very sure, *
and holiness adorns your house, O Lord,
for ever and for evermore.
Psalm 96
Cantate Domino
1
Sing to the Lord a new song; *
sing to the Lord, all the whole earth.
2
Sing to the Lord and bless his Name; *
proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day.
3
Declare his glory among the nations *
and his wonders among all peoples.
4
For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; *
he is more to be feared than all gods.
5
As for all the gods of the nations, they are but idols; *
but it is the Lord who made the heavens.
6
Oh, the majesty and magnificence of his presence! *
Oh, the power and the splendor of his sanctuary!
7
Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples; *
ascribe to the Lord honor and power.
8
Ascribe to the Lord the honor due his Name; *
bring offerings and come into his courts.
9
Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; *
let the whole earth tremble before him.
10
Tell it out among the nations: “The Lord is King! *
he has made the world so firm that it cannot be moved;
he will judge the peoples with equity.”
11
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;
let the sea thunder and all that is in it; *
let the field be joyful and all that is therein.
12
Then shall all the trees of the wood shout for joy
before the Lord when he comes, *
when he comes to judge the earth.
13
He will judge the world with righteousness *
and the peoples with his truth.
