Psalm 93-100
New King James Version
The Eternal Reign of the Lord
93 The (A)Lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty;
The Lord is clothed,
(B)He has girded Himself with strength.
Surely the world is established, so that it cannot be [a]moved.
2 (C)Your throne is established from of old;
You are from everlasting.
3 The floods have [b]lifted up, O Lord,
The floods have lifted up their voice;
The floods lift up their waves.
4 (D)The Lord on high is mightier
Than the noise of many waters,
Than the mighty waves of the sea.
5 Your testimonies are very sure;
Holiness adorns Your house,
O Lord, [c]forever.
God the Refuge of the Righteous
94 O Lord God, (E)to whom vengeance belongs—
O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth!
2 Rise up, O (F)Judge of the earth;
[d]Render punishment to the proud.
3 Lord, (G)how long will the wicked,
How long will the wicked triumph?
4 They (H)utter speech, and speak insolent things;
All the workers of iniquity boast in themselves.
5 They break in pieces Your people, O Lord,
And afflict Your heritage.
6 They slay the widow and the stranger,
And murder the fatherless.
7 (I)Yet they say, “The Lord does not see,
Nor does the God of Jacob [e]understand.”
8 Understand, you senseless among the people;
And you fools, when will you be wise?
9 (J)He who planted the ear, shall He not hear?
He who formed the eye, shall He not see?
10 He who [f]instructs the [g]nations, shall He not correct,
He who teaches man knowledge?
11 The Lord (K)knows the thoughts of man,
That they are futile.
12 Blessed is the man whom You (L)instruct, O Lord,
And teach out of Your law,
13 That You may give him [h]rest from the days of adversity,
Until the pit is dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not [i]cast off His people,
Nor will He forsake His inheritance.
15 But judgment will return to righteousness,
And all the upright in heart will follow it.
16 Who will rise up for me against the evildoers?
Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
17 Unless the Lord had been my help,
My soul would soon have settled in silence.
18 If I say, “My foot slips,”
Your mercy, O Lord, will hold me up.
19 In the multitude of my anxieties within me,
Your comforts delight my soul.
20 Shall (M)the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law,
Have fellowship with You?
21 They gather together against the life of the righteous,
And condemn (N)innocent blood.
22 But the Lord has been my defense,
And my God the rock of my refuge.
23 He has brought on them their own iniquity,
And shall [j]cut them off in their own wickedness;
The Lord our God shall cut them off.
A Call to Worship and Obedience
95 Oh come, let us sing to the Lord!
Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving;
Let us shout joyfully to Him with (O)psalms.
3 For (P)the Lord is the great God,
And the great King above all gods.
4 [k]In His hand are the deep places of the earth;
The heights of the hills are His also.
5 (Q)The sea is His, for He made it;
And His hands formed the dry land.
6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down;
Let (R)us kneel before the Lord our Maker.
7 For He is our God,
And (S)we are the people of His pasture,
And the sheep [l]of His hand.
(T)Today, if you will hear His voice:
8 “Do not harden your hearts, as in the [m]rebellion,
(U)As in the day of [n]trial in the wilderness,
9 When (V)your fathers tested Me;
They tried Me, though they (W)saw My work.
10 For (X)forty years I was [o]grieved with that generation,
And said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts,
And they do not know My ways.’
11 So (Y)I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ”
A Song of Praise to God Coming in Judgment(Z)
96 Oh, (AA)sing to the Lord a new song!
Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.
3 Declare His glory among the [p]nations,
His wonders among all peoples.
4 For (AB)the Lord is great and (AC)greatly to be praised;
(AD)He is to be feared above all gods.
5 For (AE)all the gods of the peoples are idols,
(AF)But the Lord made the heavens.
6 Honor and majesty are before Him;
Strength and (AG)beauty are in His sanctuary.
7 (AH)Give[q] to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
Give to the Lord glory and strength.
8 [r]Give to the Lord the glory due His name;
Bring an offering, and come into His courts.
9 Oh, worship the Lord (AI)in the beauty of holiness!
Tremble before Him, all the earth.
10 Say among the [s]nations, (AJ)“The Lord reigns;
The world also is firmly established,
It shall not be [t]moved;
(AK)He shall judge the peoples righteously.”
11 (AL)Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;
(AM)Let the sea roar, and [u]all its fullness;
12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it.
Then all the trees of the woods will rejoice
13 before the Lord.
For He is coming, for He is coming to judge the earth.
(AN)He shall judge the world with righteousness,
And the peoples with His truth.
A Song of Praise to the Sovereign Lord
2 (AP)Clouds and darkness surround Him;
(AQ)Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
3 (AR)A fire goes before Him,
And burns up His enemies round about.
4 (AS)His lightnings light the world;
The earth sees and trembles.
5 (AT)The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the Lord,
At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 (AU)The heavens declare His righteousness,
And all the peoples see His glory.
7 (AV)Let all be put to shame who serve carved images,
Who boast of idols.
(AW)Worship Him, all you gods.
8 Zion hears and is glad,
And the daughters of Judah rejoice
Because of Your judgments, O Lord.
9 For You, Lord, are (AX)most high above all the earth;
(AY)You are exalted far above all gods.
10 You who love the Lord, (AZ)hate evil!
(BA)He preserves the souls of His saints;
(BB)He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 (BC)Light is sown for the righteous,
And gladness for the upright in heart.
12 (BD)Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous,
(BE)And give thanks [w]at the remembrance of [x]His holy name.
A Song of Praise to the Lord for His Salvation and Judgment
A Psalm.
98 Oh, (BF)sing to the Lord a new song!
For He has (BG)done marvelous things;
His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory.
2 (BH)The Lord has made known His salvation;
(BI)His righteousness He has revealed in the sight of the [y]nations.
3 He has remembered His mercy and His faithfulness to the house of Israel;
(BJ)All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth;
Break forth in song, rejoice, and sing praises.
5 Sing to the Lord with the harp,
With the harp and the sound of a psalm,
6 With trumpets and the sound of a horn;
Shout joyfully before the Lord, the King.
7 Let the sea roar, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell in it;
8 Let the rivers clap their hands;
Let the hills be joyful together
9 before the Lord,
(BK)For He is coming to judge the earth.
With righteousness He shall judge the world,
And the peoples with [z]equity.
Praise to the Lord for His Holiness
99 The Lord reigns;
Let the peoples tremble!
(BL)He dwells between the cherubim;
Let the earth be [aa]moved!
2 The Lord is great in Zion,
And He is high above all the peoples.
3 Let them praise Your great and awesome name—
[ab]He is holy.
4 The King’s strength also loves justice;
You have established equity;
You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt the Lord our God,
And worship at His footstool—
He is holy.
6 Moses and Aaron were among His priests,
And Samuel was among those who (BM)called upon His name;
They called upon the Lord, and He answered them.
7 He spoke to them in the cloudy pillar;
They kept His testimonies and the [ac]ordinance He gave them.
8 You answered them, O Lord our God;
You were to them God-Who-Forgives,
Though You took vengeance on their deeds.
9 Exalt the Lord our God,
And worship at His holy hill;
For the Lord our God is holy.
A Song of Praise for the Lord’s Faithfulness to His People
(BN)A Psalm of Thanksgiving.
100 Make (BO)a joyful shout to the Lord, [ad]all you lands!
2 Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
3 Know that the Lord, He is God;
(BP)It is He who has made us, and [ae]not we ourselves;
(BQ)We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
4 (BR)Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
5 For the Lord is good;
(BS)His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.

Psalm 93
1 The Lord reigns,(A) he is robed in majesty;(B)
the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength;(C)
indeed, the world is established,(D) firm and secure.(E)
2 Your throne was established(F) long ago;
you are from all eternity.(G)
3 The seas(H) have lifted up, Lord,
the seas have lifted up their voice;(I)
the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.(J)
4 Mightier than the thunder(K) of the great waters,
mightier than the breakers(L) of the sea—
the Lord on high is mighty.(M)
Psalm 94
1 The Lord is a God who avenges.(P)
O God who avenges, shine forth.(Q)
2 Rise up,(R) Judge(S) of the earth;
pay back(T) to the proud what they deserve.
3 How long, Lord, will the wicked,
how long will the wicked be jubilant?(U)
4 They pour out arrogant(V) words;
all the evildoers are full of boasting.(W)
5 They crush your people,(X) Lord;
they oppress your inheritance.(Y)
6 They slay the widow(Z) and the foreigner;
they murder the fatherless.(AA)
7 They say, “The Lord does not see;(AB)
the God of Jacob(AC) takes no notice.”
8 Take notice, you senseless ones(AD) among the people;
you fools, when will you become wise?
9 Does he who fashioned the ear not hear?
Does he who formed the eye not see?(AE)
10 Does he who disciplines(AF) nations not punish?
Does he who teaches(AG) mankind lack knowledge?
11 The Lord knows all human plans;(AH)
he knows that they are futile.(AI)
12 Blessed is the one you discipline,(AJ) Lord,
the one you teach(AK) from your law;
13 you grant them relief from days of trouble,(AL)
till a pit(AM) is dug for the wicked.
14 For the Lord will not reject his people;(AN)
he will never forsake his inheritance.
15 Judgment will again be founded on righteousness,(AO)
and all the upright in heart(AP) will follow it.
16 Who will rise up(AQ) for me against the wicked?
Who will take a stand for me against evildoers?(AR)
17 Unless the Lord had given me help,(AS)
I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death.(AT)
18 When I said, “My foot is slipping,(AU)”
your unfailing love, Lord, supported me.
19 When anxiety(AV) was great within me,
your consolation(AW) brought me joy.
20 Can a corrupt throne(AX) be allied with you—
a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?(AY)
21 The wicked band together(AZ) against the righteous
and condemn the innocent(BA) to death.(BB)
22 But the Lord has become my fortress,
and my God the rock(BC) in whom I take refuge.(BD)
23 He will repay(BE) them for their sins
and destroy(BF) them for their wickedness;
the Lord our God will destroy them.
Psalm 95
1 Come,(BG) let us sing for joy(BH) to the Lord;
let us shout aloud(BI) to the Rock(BJ) of our salvation.
2 Let us come before him(BK) with thanksgiving(BL)
and extol him with music(BM) and song.
3 For the Lord is the great God,(BN)
the great King(BO) above all gods.(BP)
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth,(BQ)
and the mountain peaks belong to him.
5 The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.(BR)
6 Come, let us bow down(BS) in worship,(BT)
let us kneel(BU) before the Lord our Maker;(BV)
7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,(BW)
the flock under his care.
Today, if only you would hear his voice,
8 “Do not harden your hearts(BX) as you did at Meribah,[a](BY)
as you did that day at Massah[b] in the wilderness,(BZ)
9 where your ancestors tested(CA) me;
they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
10 For forty years(CB) I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,(CC)
and they have not known my ways.’(CD)
11 So I declared on oath(CE) in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’”(CF)
Psalm 96(CG)
1 Sing to the Lord(CH) a new song;(CI)
sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, praise his name;(CJ)
proclaim his salvation(CK) day after day.
3 Declare his glory(CL) among the nations,
his marvelous deeds(CM) among all peoples.
4 For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;(CN)
he is to be feared(CO) above all gods.(CP)
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols,(CQ)
but the Lord made the heavens.(CR)

strength and glory(CT) are in his sanctuary.

ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

tremble(DA) before him, all the earth.(DB)
10 Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.(DC)”
The world is firmly established,(DD) it cannot be moved;(DE)
he will judge(DF) the peoples with equity.(DG)
11 Let the heavens rejoice,(DH) let the earth be glad;(DI)
let the sea resound, and all that is in it.

let all the trees of the forest(DJ) sing for joy.(DK)

before the Lord of all the earth.(EC)

those who boast in idols(EH)—
worship him,(EI) all you gods!(EJ)

and the villages of Judah are glad(EK)
because of your judgments,(EL) Lord.

and praise his holy name.(EY)

English Standard Version
The Lord Reigns
93 (A)The Lord reigns; he is (B)robed in majesty;
the Lord is (C)robed; he has (D)put on strength as his belt.
(E)Yes, the world is established; (F)it shall never be moved.
2 (G)Your throne is established from of old;
(H)you are from everlasting.
3 (I)The floods have lifted up, O Lord,
the floods have lifted up their voice;
the floods lift up their roaring.
4 Mightier than the thunders of many waters,
mightier than the waves of the sea,
(J)the Lord (K)on high is mighty!
The Lord Will Not Forsake His People
94 O Lord, God of (N)vengeance,
O God of vengeance, (O)shine forth!
2 (P)Rise up, O (Q)judge of the earth;
repay to the (R)proud what they deserve!
3 O Lord, (S)how long shall the wicked,
how long shall (T)the wicked exult?
4 They pour out their (U)arrogant words;
all (V)the evildoers boast.
5 They (W)crush your people, O Lord,
and afflict your heritage.
6 They kill (X)the widow and the sojourner,
and murder (Y)the fatherless;
7 (Z)and they say, “The Lord does not see;
the God of Jacob does not perceive.”
8 (AA)Understand, O dullest of the people!
Fools, when will you be wise?
9 (AB)He who planted the ear, does he not hear?
He who formed the eye, does he not see?
10 He who (AC)disciplines the nations, does he not rebuke?
He who (AD)teaches man knowledge—
11 (AE)the Lord—knows the thoughts of man,
that they are (AF)but a breath.[a]
12 (AG)Blessed is the man whom you (AH)discipline, O Lord,
and whom you teach out of your law,
13 to give him (AI)rest from (AJ)days of trouble,
until (AK)a pit is dug for the wicked.
14 (AL)For the Lord will not forsake his (AM)people;
he will not abandon his (AN)heritage;
15 for (AO)justice will return to the righteous,
and all the upright in heart will (AP)follow it.
16 (AQ)Who rises up for me against the wicked?
Who stands up for me against evildoers?
17 (AR)If the Lord had not been my help,
my soul would soon have lived in the land of (AS)silence.
18 When I thought, (AT)“My foot slips,”
your steadfast love, O Lord, (AU)held me up.
19 When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul.
20 Can (AV)wicked rulers be allied with you,
those who frame[b] injustice by (AW)statute?
21 They (AX)band together against the life of the righteous
and condemn (AY)the innocent to death.[c]
22 But the Lord has become my (AZ)stronghold,
and my God (BA)the rock of my (BB)refuge.
23 He will bring back on them (BC)their iniquity
and (BD)wipe them out for their wickedness;
the Lord our God will wipe them out.
Let Us Sing Songs of Praise
95 Oh come, let us sing to the Lord;
let us (BE)make a joyful noise to (BF)the rock of our salvation!
2 Let us (BG)come into his presence with thanksgiving;
let us (BH)make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!
3 For the Lord is (BI)a great God,
and a great King (BJ)above all gods.
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth;
the heights of the mountains are his also.
5 The sea is his, for (BK)he made it,
and his hands formed (BL)the dry land.
6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down;
let us (BM)kneel before the Lord, our (BN)Maker!
7 For he is our (BO)God,
and we are the people of his (BP)pasture,
and the sheep of his hand.
(BQ)Today, if you (BR)hear his voice,
8 (BS)do not harden your hearts, as at (BT)Meribah,
as on the day at (BU)Massah in the wilderness,
9 when your fathers put me to the (BV)test
and put me to the proof, though they had seen my (BW)work.
10 (BX)For forty years I loathed that generation
and said, “They are a people who go astray in their heart,
and they have not known (BY)my ways.”
11 Therefore I (BZ)swore in my wrath,
“They shall not enter (CA)my rest.”
Worship in the Splendor of Holiness
96 (CB)Oh sing to the Lord (CC)a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth!
2 Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
(CD)tell of his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples!
4 For (CE)great is the Lord, and (CF)greatly to be praised;
he is to be feared above (CG)all gods.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
but the Lord (CH)made the heavens.
6 Splendor and majesty are before him;
(CI)strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Ascribe to the Lord, O (CJ)families of the peoples,
(CK)ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
8 Ascribe to the Lord (CL)the glory due his name;
bring (CM)an offering, and (CN)come into his courts!
9 Worship the Lord in (CO)the splendor of holiness;[d]
(CP)tremble before him, all the earth!
10 Say among the nations, (CQ)“The Lord reigns!
Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved;
he will (CR)judge the peoples with equity.”
11 Let (CS)the heavens be glad, and let (CT)the earth rejoice;
let (CU)the sea roar, and all that fills it;
12 let (CV)the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all (CW)the trees of the forest sing for joy
13 before the Lord, for he comes,
for he comes (CX)to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
and the peoples in his faithfulness.
The Lord Reigns
97 (CY)The Lord reigns, (CZ)let the earth rejoice;
let the many (DA)coastlands be glad!
2 (DB)Clouds and thick darkness are all around him;
(DC)righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
3 (DD)Fire goes before him
and burns up his adversaries all around.
4 His (DE)lightnings light up the world;
the earth sees and (DF)trembles.
5 The mountains (DG)melt like (DH)wax before the Lord,
before (DI)the Lord of all the earth.
6 (DJ)The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
and all (DK)the peoples see his glory.
7 All worshipers of images are (DL)put to shame,
who make their boast in (DM)worthless idols;
(DN)worship him, all you gods!
8 Zion hears and (DO)is glad,
and the daughters of Judah rejoice,
because of your judgments, O Lord.
9 For you, O Lord, are (DP)most high over all the earth;
you are exalted far above (DQ)all gods.
10 O you who love the Lord, (DR)hate evil!
He (DS)preserves the lives of his (DT)saints;
he (DU)delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
11 (DV)Light (DW)is sown[e] for the righteous,
and joy for the upright in heart.
