Psalms 96:9
7 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and enter His courts.
Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness; tremble before Him, all the earth.
10 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.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
