Psalm 66New King James Version
Praise to God for His Awesome Works
To the Chief Musician. A Song. A Psalm.
66 Make(A)a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
2 Sing out the honor of His name;
Make His praise glorious.
3 Say to God,
“How(B)awesome are Your works!
(C)Through the greatness of Your power
Your enemies shall submit themselves to You.
4 (D)All the earth shall worship You
And sing praises to You;
They shall sing praisestoYour name.”Selah
5 Come and see the works of God;
He isawesomein Hisdoing toward the sons of men.
6 (E)He turned the sea into dryland;
(F)They went through the river on foot.
There we will rejoice in Him.
7 He rules by His power forever;
His eyes observe the nations;
Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves.Selah
8 Oh, bless our God, you peoples!
And make the voice of His praise to be heard,
9 Who keeps our soul among the living,
And does not allow our feet to[a]be moved.
10 For(G)You, O God, have tested us;
(H)You have refined us as silver is refined.
11 (I)You brought us into the net;
You laid affliction on our backs.
12 (J)You have caused men to ride over our heads;
(K)We went through fire and through water;
But You brought us out to[b]richfulfillment.
13 (L)I will go into Your house with burnt offerings;
(M)I will pay You my[c]vows,
14 Which my lips have uttered
And my mouth has spoken when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer You burnt sacrifices of fat animals,
With the sweet aroma of rams;
I will offer bulls with goats.Selah
16 Comeandhear, all you who fear God,
And I will declare what He has done for my soul.
17 I cried to Him with my mouth,
And He was[d]extolled with my tongue.
18 (N)If I regard iniquity in my heart,
The Lord will not hear.
19 Butcertainly God(O)has heardme;
He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 BlessedbeGod,
Who has not turned away my prayer,
Nor His mercy from me!
