7 Ascribe to the Lord, all you families of nations, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
7 Give unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.
7 Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
7 Bravo, God, Bravo! Everyone join in the great shout: Encore! In awe before the beauty, in awe before the might.
7 Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples, Give to the Lord glory and strength.
7 OÂ nations of the world, recognize the Lord ; recognize that the Lord is glorious and strong.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 96:7
Commentary on Psalm 96:1-9
(Read Psalm 96:1-9)
When Christ finished his work on earth, and was received into his glory in heaven, the church began to sing a new song unto him, and to bless his name. His apostles and evangelists showed forth his salvation among the heathen, his wonders among all people. All the earth is here summoned to worship the Lord. We must worship him in the beauty of holiness, as God in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself. Glorious things are said of him, both as motives to praise and matter of praise.
