PSALM 66
To the chief Musician, A Song or
Psalm.
1 Make a
joyful noise unto God, all ye lands: 2 Sing forth the honour of
his name: make his praise glorious. 3 Say unto God, How terrible art
thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies
submita
themselves unto thee. 4 All the earth shall worship thee, and
shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah. 5
Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing
toward the children of men. 6 He turned the sea into dry land:
they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him. 7
He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious
exalt themselves. Selah.
8O bless
our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: 9
Which holdethb our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be
moved. 10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as
silver is tried. 11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst
affliction upon our loins. 12 Thou hast caused men to ride over
our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out
into a wealthyc place.
13I will go
into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows, 14
Which my lips have utteredd, and my mouth hath spoken, when I
was in trouble. 15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of
fatlingse,
with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah. 16
Come 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
extolled with my tongue. 18 If I regard 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. 20 Blessed be
God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
