The Psalms 66


Praise for God’s Mighty Deeds
To the chief Musician, A Song or Psalm.

1  Make a joyful noise unto God,
        
all ye lands:
2  sing forth the honor 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 submit 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: Ex. 14.21
        
they went through the flood on foot: Josh. 3.14-17
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.
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 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 wealthy place.
13  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.
15  I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings,
        
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.
