< Psalms 66 >

1 Unto the end, a canticle of a psalm of the resurrection. Shout with joy to God, all the earth,
Make a joyful noise unto God, all you lands:
2 Sing ye a psalm to his name; give glory to his praise.
Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
3 Say unto God, How terrible are thy works, O Lord! in the multitude of thy strength thy enemies shall lie to thee.
Say unto God, How terrible are you in your works! through the greatness of your power shall your enemies submit themselves unto you.
4 Let all the earth adore thee, and sing to thee: let it sing a psalm to thy name.
All the earth shall worship you, and shall sing unto you; they shall sing to your name. (Selah)
5 Come and see the works of God; who is terrible in his counsels over the sons of men.
Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.
6 Who turneth the sea into dry land, in the river they shall pass on foot: there shall we rejoice in him.
He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7 Who by his power ruleth for ever: his eyes behold the nations; let not them that provoke him he exalted in themselves.
He rules by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
8 O bless our God, ye Gentiles: and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
O bless our God, all of you people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
9 Who hath set my soul to live: and hath not suffered my feet to be moved:
Which holds our soul in life, and suffers not our feet to be moved.
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us by fire, as silver is tried.
For you, O God, have proved us: you have tried us, as silver is tried.
11 Thou hast brought us into a net, thou hast laid afflictions on our back:
You brought us into the net; you laid affliction upon our loins.
12 Thou hast set men over our heads. We have passed through tire and water, and thou hast brought us out into a refreshment.
You have caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but you brought us out into a wealthy place.
13 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
I will go into your house with burnt offerings: I will pay you my vows,
14 Which my lips have uttered, And my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth has spoken, when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer up to thee holocausts full of marrow, with burnt offerings of rams: I will offer to thee bullocks with goats.
I will offer unto you 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 tell you what great things he hath done for my soul.
Come and hear, all you that fear God, and I will declare what he has done for my soul.
17 I cried to him with my mouth: and I extolled him with my tongue.
I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 If I have looked at iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.
If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
19 Therefore hath God heard me, and hath attended to the voice of my supplication.
But verily God has heard me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
Blessed be God, which has not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
