Psalm 66

To the chief Musician, *A Song or Psalm.

1  aMake a joyful noise unto God, †all ye lands:

2  Sing forth the honour of his name:

bMake his praise glorious.

3  Say unto God, How cterrible art thou in thy works!

Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies ||submit themselves unto thee.

4  dAll the earth shall worship thee,

And shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah.

5  eCome and see the works of God:

He is cterrible in his doing toward the children of men.

6  fHe turned the sea into dry land:

gThey went through gthe flood on foot:

hThere did we rejoice in him.

7  He ruleth by his power for ever;

iHis eyes behold the nations:

Let not jthe rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

8  O bless our God, ye people,

And make the voice of his praise to be heard:

9  Which †holdeth our soul in life,

And ksuffereth not our feet to be moved.

10  For thou, O God, hast lproved us:

Thou hast mtried us, as silver is tried.

11  Thou broughtest us into the nnet;

Thou laidst affliction upon our loins.

12  oThou hast caused men to ride over our heads;

We went through fire and pthrough water:

But thou broughtest us out into a †wealthy place.

13  qI will go into thy house with burnt offerings:

rI will pay thee my vows,

14  Which my lips have †uttered,

And my mouth hath spoken, swhen 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.

16  tCome and hear, all ye that fear God,

And I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

17  I cried unto him with my mouth,

And he was uextolled with my tongue.

18  If I wregard iniquity in my heart,

xThe Lord will not hear me:

19  But verily yGod hath heard me;

He hath zattended to the voice of my prayer.

20  Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer,

Nor his mercy from me.
