23Sing to the LORD, all the earth.
Proclaim His salvation day after day.
24Declare His glory among the nations,
His wonderful deeds among all peoples.
25For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised;
He is to be feared above all gods.
26For all the gods of the nations are idols,
but it is the LORD who made the heavens.
27Splendor and majesty are before Him;
strength and joy fill His dwelling.
28Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
29Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name;
bring an offering and come before Him.
Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness;
30tremble before Him, all the earth.
The world is firmly established;
it cannot be moved.
31Let the heavens be glad,
and the earth rejoice.
Let them say among the nations,
‘The LORD reigns!’
32Let the sea resound,
and all that fills it;
let the fields exult,
and all that is in them.
33Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD,
for He is coming to judge the earth.
