28  Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,

^xascribe to the Lord glory and strength!

29  Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;

bring an offering and come before him!

^yWorship the Lord in the splendor of holiness;¹

30  tremble before him, all the earth;

yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.

31  ^zLet the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice,

and let them say among the nations, ^a“The Lord reigns!”

32  ^bLet the sea roar, and all that fills it;

let the field exult, and everything in it!

33  Then shall the trees of the forest sing for joy

before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth.

34  Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;

for his steadfast love endures forever!
