Chapter 66

1


 

  To the chief music-maker. A Song. A Psalm.
Send up a glad cry to God, all the earth:  

 

 

--

2


 

  Make a song in honour of his name: give praise and glory to him.  

 

 

--

3


 

  Say to God, How greatly to be feared are your works! because of your great power your haters are forced to put themselves under your feet.  

 

 

--

4


 

  Let all the earth give you worship, and make songs to you; let them make songs to your name. (Selah.)  

 

 

--

5


 

  Come and see the works of God: he is to be feared in all he does to the children of men.  

 

 

--

6


 

  The sea was turned into dry land: they went through the river on foot: there did we have joy in him.  

 

 

--

7


 

  He is ruling in power for ever; his eyes are watching the nations: may his haters have no strength against him. (Selah.)  

 

 

--

8


 

  Give blessings to our God, O you peoples, let the voice of his praise be loud;  

 

 

--

9


 

  Because he gives us life, and has not let our feet be moved.  

 

 

--

10


 

  For you, O God, have put us to the test: testing us by fire like silver.  

 

 

--

11


 

  You let us be put in prison; chains were put on our legs.  

 

 

--

12


 

  You let men go driving over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but you took us out into a wide place.  

 

 

--

13


 

  I will come into your house with burned offerings, I will make payment of my debt to you,  

 

 

--

14


 

  Keeping the word which came from my lips, and which my mouth said, when I was in trouble.  

 

 

--

15


 

  I will give you burned offerings of fat beasts, and the smoke of sheep; I will make offerings of oxen and goats. (Selah.)  

 

 

--

16


 

  Come, give ear to me, all you God-fearing men, so that I may make clear to you what he has done for my soul.  

 

 

--

17


 

  My voice went up to him, and I was lifted up from the underworld.  

 

 

--

18


 

  I said in my heart, The Lord will not give ear to me:  

 

 

--

19


 

  But truly God's ear has been open; he has give attention to the voice of my prayer.  

 

 

--

20


 

  Praise be to God who has not taken away his good faith and his mercy from me.
