Psalm 96:5-7
New English Translation
5 For all the gods of the nations are worthless,[a]
but the Lord made the sky.

his sanctuary is firmly established and beautiful.[c]
7 Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the nations,
ascribe to the Lord splendor and strength.
Footnotes

- Psalm 96:6 tn Heb “majesty and splendor [are] before him.”
- Psalm 96:6 tn Heb “strength and beauty [are] in his sanctuary.”
