8 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
bring an offering, and come into his courts.(A)
9 Worship the Lord in holy splendor;
tremble before him, all the earth.(B)
10 Say among the nations, “The Lord is king!
The world is firmly established; it shall never be moved.
He will judge the peoples with equity.”(C)
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
let the sea roar and all that fills it;(D)
12 let the field exult and everything in it.
Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy
13 before the Lord, for he is coming,
for he is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness
and the peoples with his truth.(E)
