< Psalms 66 >

1 To the chief Musician, A Song [or] Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:
Unto the end, a canticle of a psalm of the resurrection. Shout with joy to God, all the earth,
2 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
Sing ye a psalm to his name; give glory to his praise.
3 Say unto God, How terrible [art thou in] thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
Say unto God, How terrible are thy works, O Lord! in the multitude of thy strength thy enemies shall lie to thee.
4 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing [to] thy name. (Selah)
Let all the earth adore thee, and sing to thee: let it sing a psalm to thy name.
5 Come and see the works of God: [he is] terrible [in his] doing toward the children of men.
Come and see the works of God; who is terrible in his counsels over the sons of men.
6 He turned the sea into dry [land: ] they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
Who turneth the sea into dry land, in the river they shall pass on foot: there shall we rejoice in him.
7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
Who by his power ruleth for ever: his eyes behold the nations; let not them that provoke him he exalted in themselves.
8 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
O bless our God, ye Gentiles: and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
Who hath set my soul to live: and hath not suffered my feet to be moved:
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us by fire, as silver is tried.
11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
Thou hast brought us into a net, thou hast laid afflictions on our back:
12 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].
Thou hast set men over our heads. We have passed through tire and water, and thou hast brought us out into a refreshment.
13 I will go into thy house with 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 have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
Which my lips have uttered, And my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)
I will offer up to thee holocausts full of marrow, with burnt offerings of rams: I will offer to thee bullocks with goats.
16 Come [and] hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will tell you what great things he hath done for my soul.
17 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
I cried to him with my mouth: and I extolled him with my tongue.
18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear [me: ]
If I have looked at iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.
19 [But] verily God hath heard [me; ] he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
Therefore hath God heard me, and hath attended to the voice of my supplication.
20 Blessed [be] God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
