3 Declare his glory among the nations, his wonders among all peoples!
3
Make clear his glory to the nations, and his wonders to all the peoples.
4 For ADONAI is great, and greatly to be praised; he is to be feared more than all gods.
4
For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised; he is more to be feared than all other gods.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but ADONAI made the heavens.
5
For all the gods of the nations are false gods; but the Lord made the heavens.
6 In his presence are honor and majesty; in his sanctuary, strength and splendor.

Honour and glory are before him: strong and fair is his holy place.
7 Give ADONAI his due, you families from the peoples; give ADONAI his due of glory and strength;

O give worship to the Lord in holy robes; be in fear before him, all the earth.
10 Say among the nations, "ADONAI is king!"The world is firmly established, immovable. He will judge the peoples fairly.
10
Say among the nations, The Lord is King; yes, the world is ordered so that it may not be moved; he will be an upright judge of the peoples.
11 Let the heavens rejoice; let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and everything in it;
11
Let the heavens have joy and the earth be glad; let the sea be thundering with all its waters;
12 let the fields exult and all that is in them. Then all the trees in the forest will sing
12
Let the field be glad, and everything which is in it; yes, let all the trees of the wood be sounding with joy,
13 before ADONAI, because he has come, he has come to judge the earth; he will judge the world rightly and the peoples with his faithfulness.
13
Before the Lord, for he is come; he is come to be the judge of the earth; the earth will be judged in righteousness, and the peoples with unchanging faith.
