28. Praise the Lord, all nations on earth.Praise the Lord’s glory and power.

29. Praise the Lord for the glory of his name.Bring your offering to him.Worship the Lord because he is holy.

31. Let the skies rejoice and the earth be glad.Let people everywhere say, “The Lord is king!”

32. Let the sea and everything in it shout.Let the fields and everything in them show their joy.
