Psalms
Chapter 96
1
1 Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth.
2
Sing to the LORD, bless his name; announce his salvation day after day.
3
Tell God's glory among the nations; among all peoples, God's marvelous deeds.
4
2 For great is the LORD and highly to be praised, to be feared above all gods.
5
For the gods of the nations all do nothing, but the LORD made the heavens.
6
Splendor and power go before him; power and grandeur are in his holy place.
7
Give to the LORD, you families of nations, give to the LORD glory and might;
8
give to the LORD the glory due his name! Bring gifts and enter his courts;
9
bow down to the LORD, splendid in holiness. Tremble before God, all the earth;
10
say among the nations: The LORD is king. The world will surely stand fast, never to be moved. God rules the peoples with fairness.
11
Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea and what fills it resound;
12
let the plains be joyful and all that is in them. Then let all the trees of the forest rejoice
13
before the LORD who comes, who comes to govern the earth, To govern the world with justice and the peoples with faithfulness.

Psalms
Chapter 27
1
Of David 1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom do I fear? The LORD is my life's refuge; of whom am I afraid?
2
2 When evildoers come at me to devour my flesh, These my enemies and foes themselves stumble and fall.
3
Though an army encamp against me, my heart does not fear; Though war be waged against me, even then do I trust.
4
One thing I ask of the LORD; this I seek: To dwell in the LORD'S house all the days of my life, To gaze on the LORD'S beauty, to visit his temple.
5
For God will hide me in his shelter in time of trouble, Will conceal me in the cover of his tent; and set me high upon a rock.
6
Even now my head is held high above my enemies on every side! I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and chant praise to the LORD.
7
Hear my voice, LORD, when I call; have mercy on me and answer me.
8
3 "Come," says my heart, "seek God's face"; your face, LORD, do I seek!
9
Do not hide your face from me; do not repel your servant in anger. You are my help; do not cast me off; do not forsake me, God my savior!
10
Even if my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will take me in.
11
LORD, show me your way; lead me on a level path because of my enemies.
12
Do not abandon me to the will of my foes; malicious and lying witnesses have risen against me.
13
4 But I believe I shall enjoy the LORD'S goodness in the land of the living.
14
Wait for the LORD, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the LORD!

1 Come, let us sing joyfully to the LORD; cry out to the rock of our salvation.
2
Let us greet him with a song of praise, joyfully sing out our psalms.
3
For the LORD is the great God, the great king over all gods,
4
Whose hand holds the depths of the earth; who owns the tops of the mountains.
5
The sea and dry land belong to God, who made them, formed them by hand.
6
Enter, let us bow down in worship; let us kneel before the LORD who made us.
7
For this is our God, whose people we are, God's well-tended flock. Oh, that today you would hear his voice: 8
2 Do not harden your hearts as at Meribah, as on the day of Massah in the desert.
9
There your ancestors tested me; they tried me though they had seen my works.
10
Forty years I loathed that generation; I said: "This people's heart goes astray; they do not know my ways."
11
3 Therefore I swore in my anger: "They shall never enter my rest."
