Psalms - Chapter 66 | English Standard Version

  • 1. To the choirmaster. A Song. A Psalm. Shout for joy to God, all the earth;
  • 2. sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise!
  • 3. Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you.
  • 4. All the earth worships you and sings praises to you; they sing praises to your name." Selah.
  • 5. Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.
  • 6. He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot. There did we rejoice in him,
  • 7. who rules by his might forever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations-- let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.
  • 8. Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of his praise be heard,
  • 9. who has kept our soul among the living and has not let our feet slip.
  • 10. For you, O God, have tested us; you have tried us as silver is tried.
  • 11. You brought us into the net; you laid a crushing burden on our backs;
  • 12. you let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.
  • 13. I will come into your house with burnt offerings; I will perform my vows to you,
  • 14. that which my lips uttered and my mouth promised when I was in trouble.
  • 15. I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals, with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams; I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah.
  • 16. Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for my soul.
  • 17. I cried to him with my mouth, and high praise was on my tongue.
  • 18. If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
  • 19. But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
  • 20. Blessed be God, because he has not rejected my prayer or removed his steadfast love from me!
