1.7 KiB
Psalm 66Praise for God's Mighty Acts
-
Let the whole earth shout joyfully to God!
-
Sing about the glory of his name; make his praise glorious.
-
Say to God, "How awe-inspiring are your works! Your enemies will cringe before you because of your great strength.
-
The whole earth will worship you and sing praise to you. They will sing praise to your name."Selah
-
Come and see the wonders of God; his acts for humanity are awe-inspiring.
-
He turned the sea into dry land, and they crossed the river on foot.
There we rejoiced in him.
-
He rules forever by his might; he keeps his eye on the nations. The rebellious should not exalt themselves.Selah
-
Bless our God, you peoples; let the sound of his praise be heard.
-
He keeps us alive and does not allow our feet to slip.
-
For you, God, tested us; you refined us as silver is refined.
-
You lured us into a trap; you placed burdens on our backs.
-
You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us out to abundance.
-
I will enter your house with burnt offerings; I will pay you my vows
-
that my lips promised and my mouth spoke during my distress.
-
I will offer you fattened sheep as burnt offerings, with the fragrant smoke of rams; I will sacrifice bulls with goats.Selah
-
Come and listen, all who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for me.
-
I cried out to him with my mouth, and praise was on my tongue.
-
If I had been aware of malice in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
-
However, God has listened; he has paid attention to the sound of my prayer.
-
Blessed be God! He has not turned away my prayer or turned his faithful love from me.
