“1 <<To the chief Musician, A Song [or] Psalm.>> Make a joyful noise
unto God, all ye lands: 2 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his
praise glorious. 3 Say unto God, How terrible [art thou in] thy works!
through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves
unto thee. 4 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee;
they shall sing [to] thy name. Selah. 5 Come and see the works of God:
[he is] terrible [in his] doing toward the children of men. 6 He turned
the sea into dry [land]: they went through the flood on foot: there did
we rejoice in him. 7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold
the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.”
“8 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be
heard: 9 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to
be moved. 10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as
silver is tried. 11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst
affliction upon our loins. 12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our
heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us
out into a wealthy [place].”
“13 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my
vows, 14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I
was in trouble. 15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings,
with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah. 16
Come [and] hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath
done for my soul. 17 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled
with my tongue. 18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not
hear [me]: 19 [But] verily God hath heard [me]; he hath attended to the
voice of my prayer. 20 Blessed [be] God, which hath not turned away my
prayer, nor his mercy from me.” (Psalm 66:1-20 AV)
