| Chapter 66 |
1 | For the Chief Musician. A song, a Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God, all the earth:
|
2 | Sing forth the glory of his name: Make his praise glorious.
|
3 | Say unto God, How terrible are 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; They went through the river on foot: There did we rejoice in him.
|
7 | He ruleth by his might for ever; His eyes observe the nations: Let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah
|
8 | Oh bless our God, ye peoples, And make the voice of his praise to be heard;
|
9 | Who 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 layedst a sore burden upon our loins.
|
12 | Thou didst cause 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 come into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows,
|
14 | Which my lips uttered, And my mouth spake, when I was in distress.
|
15 | I will offer unto thee burnt-offerings 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:
|
19 | But verily God hath heard; He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
|
20 | Blessed be God, Who hath not turned away my prayer, Nor his lovingkindness from me.
