Sing to the Lord, all the earth

(1 Chronicles 16:23-36)

A Canticle of David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing to the Lord a new song. Sing to the Lord, all the earth.(a)

Sing to the Lord and bless his name. Announce his salvation from day to day.

Announce his glory among the Gentiles, his miracles among all peoples.

For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised. He is terrible, beyond all gods.

For all the gods of the Gentiles are demons, but the Lord made the heavens.

Confession and beauty are in his sight. Sanctity and magnificence are in his sanctuary.(b)

Bring to the Lord, you natives of the nations, bring to the Lord glory and honor.

Bring to the Lord glory for his name. Lift up sacrifices, and enter into his courts.

Adore the Lord in his holy court. Let the entire earth be shaken before his face.

Say among the Gentiles: The Lord has reigned. For he has even corrected the whole world, which will not be shaken. He will judge the peoples with fairness.(c)

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; let the sea and all its fullness be moved.

The fields and all the things that are in them will be glad. Then all the trees of the forest will rejoice

before the face of the Lord: for he arrives. For he arrives to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with fairness and the peoples with his truth.

(a)95:1 When the house was built, etc:Alluding to that time, and then ordered to be sung: but principally relating to the building of the church of Christ, after our redemption from the captivity of Satan.(Challoner)

(b)95:6 Or, ‘Purity and magnificence are in his sanctuary.’(Conte)

(c)95:10 Even though the previous verse said that the entire earth could be shaken before the face of God, this verse says that the whole world will not be shaken (or moved). Presently, the earth can and will be shaken, but eventually God will establish His kingdom on earth and it shall never be shaken (or moved or destroyed) again.(Conte)

Singet dem HERRN, alle Welt

(1. Chronik 16,23-36)

Ein Lied Davids, als das Haus nach der Gefangenschaft gebaut ward. Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied, singet dem Herren, alle Lande!

Singet dem Herrn und preiset seinen Namen, verkündet von einem Tage zum andern sein Heil!

Verkündet unter den Völkern seine Herrlichkeit, unter allen Nationen seine Wunder!

Denn groß ist der Herr und überaus preisenswert, furchtbar ist er über alle Götter.

Denn alle Götter der Heiden sind böse Geister, der Herr aber hat die Himmel geschaffen.

Lobpreis und Pracht sind vor seinem Angesichte, Heiligkeit und Herrlichkeit in seinem Heiligtume.

Bringet dem Herrn, ihr Völkerstämme, bringet dem Herrn Preis und Ehre dar!

Bringet dem Herrn Verherrlichung seines Namens dar, nehmet Opfer und tretet in seinen Vorhof!

Betet den Herrn an in seinem heiligen Vorhofe, es bebe vor seinem Angesichte die ganze Erde!

Saget unter den Völkern, dass der Herr König ist; ja, er hat den Erdkreis festgestellt, der nicht wanken wird; er richtet die Völker mit Gerechtigkeit.

Es freue sich der Himmel und die Erde frohlocke, es brause das Meer und was es erfüllt,

Es freue sich die Flur und alles, was auf ihr ist. Alsdann werden alle Bäume der Wälder jauchzen

vor dem Antlitze des Herrn, weil er kommt, weil er kommt, die Erde zu richten! Er wir den Erdkreis mit Gerechtigkeit richten und die Völker in seiner Wahrhaftigkeit.
