Psalm 96:6

Verse 6 of 13. The 96th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

2Sing unto the Lord, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.

3Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

4For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.

5For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.

6Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7Give unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.

8Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.

9O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.

10Say among the heathen that the Lord reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.

Matthew Henry on Psalm 96:6

He is great in the manifestation of his glory both in the upper and lower world, among his angels in heaven and his saints on earth (v. 6): Splendour and majesty are before him, in his immediate presence above, where the angels cover their faces, as unable to bear the dazzling lustre of his glory. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary, both that above and this below.
