Salmos 96:1-9

1 Cantem ao SENHOR um novo cântico;cantem ao SENHOR, todos os habitantes da terra!

2 Cantem ao SENHOR, bendigam o seu nome;cada dia proclamem a sua salvação!

3 Anunciem a sua glória entre as nações,seus feitos maravilhosos entre todos os povos!

4 Porque o SENHOR é grande e digno de todo louvor,mais temível do que todos os deuses!

5 Todos os deuses das nações não passam de ídolos,mas o SENHOR fez os céus.

6 Majestade e esplendor estão diante dele;poder e dignidade, no seu santuário.

7 Deem ao SENHOR, ó famílias das nações,deem ao SENHOR glória e força.

8 Deem ao SENHOR a glória devida ao seu nomee entrem nos seus átrios trazendo ofertas.

9 Adorem o SENHOR no esplendor da sua santidade;tremam diante dele todos os habitantes da terra.

Salmos 96:1-9 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 96

This psalm was written by David, as appears from 1Ch 16:7,23 to whom it is ascribed by the Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, and all the Oriental versions. This and part of Psalm 105 were first composed and sung at the bringing of the ark from the house of Obededom to the city of David; and here it is detached from that with a new introduction to it, and applied to the times and kingdom of the Messiah, and; with great propriety, since the ark was an eminent type of him. The inscription in the Syriac version is,

``a Psalm of David, a Prophecy of the coming of the Messiah, and of the calling of the Gentiles that believe in him:''

and very rightly, since express mention is made of them in it, and of the publication of the Gospel among them; and clear reference is had to Christ, who is the Jehovah all along spoken of Jarchi well observes, that wherever a "new song" is mentioned, it is to be understood of future time, or the times of the Messiah; and the end of the psalm shows it,

\\he cometh to judge\\
