New American Standard Bible
23 (A)Sing to the Lord, all the earth;
Proclaim good news of His salvation from day to day.
24 Tell of His glory among the nations,
His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
25 For (B)great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
He also is (C)to be feared above all gods.
26 For all the gods of the peoples are [a](D)idols,
(E)But the Lord made the heavens.
27 Splendor and majesty are before Him,
Strength and joy are in His place.
28 Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples,
Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
29 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name;
Bring an [b]offering, and come before Him;
(F)Worship the Lord in [c]holy attire.
30 Tremble before Him, all the earth;
Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved.
31 [d](G)Let the heavens be joyful, and the earth rejoice;
And let them say among the nations, “(H)The Lord reigns.”
