A Song of Praise to God Coming in Judgment(A)

96 Oh, (B)sing to the Lord a new song!
Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.
Declare His glory among the [a]nations,
His wonders among all peoples.

For (C)the Lord is great and (D)greatly to be praised;
(E)He is to be feared above all gods.
For (F)all the gods of the peoples are idols,
(G)But the Lord made the heavens.
Honor and majesty are before Him;
Strength and (H)beauty are in His sanctuary.

(I)Give[b] to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
Give to the Lord glory and strength.
[c]Give to the Lord the glory due His name;
Bring an offering, and come into His courts.
Oh, worship the Lord (J)in the beauty of holiness!
Tremble before Him, all the earth.

10 Say among the [d]nations, (K)“The Lord reigns;
The world also is firmly established,
It shall not be [e]moved;
(L)He shall judge the peoples righteously.”

11 (M)Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;
(N)Let the sea roar, and [f]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.
(O)He shall judge the world with righteousness,
And the peoples with His truth.

The Proclamations of Three Angels

Then I saw another angel (A)flying in the midst of heaven, (B)having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth—(C)to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people— saying with a loud voice, (D)“Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; (E)and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.”

And another angel followed, saying, (F)“Babylon[a] is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because (G)she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, (H)“If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his (I)mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself (J)shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is (K)poured out full strength into (L)the cup of His indignation. (M)He shall be tormented with (N)fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And (O)the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

12 (P)Here is the [b]patience of the saints; (Q)here[c] are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
