Psalms 66
1 For the end, a Song of Psalm of resurrection. Shout unto God, all the earth.
To the chief Musician, A Song [or] Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:
2 O sing praises to his name; give glory to his praise.
Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
3 Say unto God, How awful are thy works! through the greatness of thy power thine enemies shall lie to thee.
Say unto God, How terrible [art thou in] thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
4 Let all the earth worship thee, and sing to thee; let them sing to thy name. (Pause)
All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing [to] thy name. (Selah)
5 Come and behold the works of God; [he is] terrible in [his] counsels beyond the children of men.
Come and see the works of God: [he is] terrible [in his] doing toward the children of men.
6 Who turns the sea into dry land; they shall go through the river on foot; there shall we rejoice in him,
He turned the sea into dry [land: ] they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7 who by his power is Lord over the age, his eyes look upon the nations; let not them that provoke [him] be exalted in themselves. (Pause)
He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
8 Bless our God, ye Gentiles, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;
O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
9 who quickens my soul in life, and does not suffer my feet to be moved.
Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10 For thou, O God, has proved us; thou hast tried us with fire as silver is tried.
For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
11 Thou broughtest us into the snare; thou laidest afflictions on our back.
Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
12 Thou didst mount men upon our heads; we went through the fire and water; but thou broughtest us out into [a place of] refreshment.
Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy [place].
13 I will go into thine house with whole-burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows,
I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
14 which my lips framed, and my mouth uttered in my affliction.
Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer to thee whole-burnt-sacrifices full of marrow, with incense and rams; I will sacrifice to thee oxen with goats. (Pause)
I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)
16 Come, hear, and I will tell, all ye that fear God, how great things he has done for my soul.
Come [and] hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17 I cried to him with my mouth, and exalted him with my tongue.
I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 If I have regarded iniquity in my heart, let not the Lord hearken [to me].
If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear [me: ]
19 Therefore God has hearkened to me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
[But] verily God hath heard [me; ] he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
Blessed [be] God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
