5 Quoniam omnes dii gentium dæmonia; Dominus autem cælos fecit.

7 Afferte Domino, patriæ gentium, afferte Domino gloriam et honorem;

Ascribe to Yahweh, you clans of peoples, ascribe praise to Yahweh for his glory and strength.

8 afferte Domino gloriam nomini ejus. Tollite hostias, et introite in atria ejus;

9 adorate Dominum in atrio sancto ejus. Commoveatur a facie ejus universa terra;

Bow down to Yahweh in the splendor of holiness; tremble before him, all the earth.

10 dicite in gentibus, quia Dominus regnavit. Etenim correxit orbem terræ, qui non commovebitur; judicabit populos in æquitate.

Say among the nations, “Yahweh reigns.” The world also is established; it cannot be shaken. He judges the peoples fairly.

11 Lætentur cæli, et exsultet terra; commoveatur mare et plenitudo ejus;

Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar and that which fills it shout with joy.

12 gaudebunt campi, et omnia quæ in eis sunt. Tunc exsultabunt omnia ligna silvarum

Let the fields rejoice and all that is in them. Then let all the trees in the forest shout for joy

13 a facie Domini, quia venit, quoniam venit judicare terram. Judicabit orbem terræ in æquitate, et populos in veritate sua.

before Yahweh, for he is coming. He is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness and the peoples with his faithfulness.
