Psalm 66, NEW REVISED STANDARD VERSION
Prior Chapter  |  Next Chapter

1

Make a joyful noise 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!  Because of your great power, your enemies cringe before you.
 

4

All the earth worships you; they sing praises to you, sing praises to your name.”  (Selah)
 

5

Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds among mortals.
 

6

He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot.  There we rejoiced in him,
 

7

who rules by his might forever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations — let the rebellious not exalt themselves.  (Selah)
 

8

Bless our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard,

9

who has kept us 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 burdens on our backs;

12

you let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.
 

13

I will come into your house with burnt offerings; I will pay you my vows,
 

14

those that my lips uttered and my mouth promised when I was in trouble.
 

15

I will offer to you burnt offerings of fatlings, 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 me.
 

17

I cried aloud to him, and he was extolled with 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 given heed to the words of my prayer.
 

20

Blessed be God, because he has not rejected my prayer or removed his steadfast love from me.
