Psalms 96:1-4

Context
Psalm 96 1 

96:1 Sing to the Lord a new song! 2 

Sing to the Lord, all the earth!

96:2 Sing to the Lord! Praise his name!

Announce every day how he delivers! 3 

96:3 Tell the nations about his splendor!

Tell 4  all the nations about his amazing deeds!

96:4 For the Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise;

he is more awesome than all gods. 5 

1 sn Psalm 96. The psalmist summons everyone to praise the Lord, the sovereign creator of the world who preserves and promotes justice in the earth.

2 sn A new song is appropriate because the Lord is constantly intervening in the world as its just king. See also Pss 33:3; 40:3; 98:1.

3 tn Heb “announce from day to day his deliverance.”

4 tn The verb “tell” is understood by ellipsis (note the preceding line).

5 tn Or perhaps “and feared by all gods.” See Ps 89:7.
