The Pulpit Commentary on Psalms 96:7

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

Give unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people; rather, O ye fatuities of the peoples. A renewed appeal to the heathen to join in the song of praise (comp. Psalms 96:1). Give unto the Lord glory and strength.

"Give" must be understood in the sense of "ascribe" (see Professor Cheyne's translation, and compare the Prayer book Version). Both this and the next verse are echoes of Psalms 29:1, Psalms 29:2.
