6 He turned the sea into dry [land]: they went through the flood on foot: there we rejoiced in him.

8 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:

Prayse our God, ye people, and make the voyce of his prayse to be heard.

9 Who holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

Which holdeth our soules in life, and suffereth not our feete to slippe.

10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

For thou, O God, hast proued vs, thou hast tryed vs as siluer is tryed.

11 Thou hast brought us into the net; thou hast laid affliction upon our loins.

Thou hast brought vs into the snare, and layed a strait chaine vpon our loynes.

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,

I will go into thine House with burnt offrings, and will pay thee my vowes,

14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.

Which my lippes haue promised, and my mouth hath spoken in mine affliction.

15 I will offer to thee burnt-sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)

I will offer vnto thee the burnt offerings of fat rammes with incense: I will prepare bullocks and goates. (Selah)

16 Come [and] hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

Come and hearken, all ye that feare God, and I will tell you what he hath done to my soule.

17 I cried to him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.

I called vnto him with my mouth, and he was exalted with my tongue.

18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the LORD will not hear [me]:

If I regard wickednesse in mine heart, the Lord will not heare me.

19 [But] verily God hath heard [me]; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

But God hath heard me, and considered the voyce of my prayer.

20 Blessed [be] God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.

Praysed be God, which hath not put backe my prayer, nor his mercie from me.
