Psalms 96:10

8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and enter His courts.

9 Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness; tremble before Him, all the earth.

Declare among the nations: “The LORD reigns!” The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved; He will judge the peoples with equity.

11 Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea resound, and all that fills it.

12 Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
