←Prev   Psalms 66 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


66:1  For the director of music. A song. A psalm. Shout for joy to God, all the earth!
66:2  Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious.
66:3  Say to God, ‘How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.
66:4  All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing the praises of your name.’
66:5  Come and see what God has done, his awesome deeds for mankind!
66:6  He turned the sea into dry land, they passed through the waters on foot – come, let us rejoice in him.
66:7  He rules for ever by his power, his eyes watch the nations – let not the rebellious rise up against him.
66:8  Praise our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard;
66:9  he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping.
66:10  For you, God, tested us; you refined us like silver.
66:11  You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs.
66:12  You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.
66:13  I will come to your temple with burnt offerings and fulfil my vows to you –
66:14  vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.
66:15  I will sacrifice fat animals to you and an offering of rams; I will offer bulls and goats.
66:16  Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.
66:17  I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.
66:18  If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;
66:19  but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer.
66:20  Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!
