Psalm 66:8-20
New King James Version
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 (A)You, O God, have tested us;
(B)You have refined us as silver is refined.
11 (C)You brought us into the net;
You laid affliction on our backs.
12 (D)You have caused men to ride over our heads;
(E)We went through fire and through water;
But You brought us out to [b]rich fulfillment.
13 (F)I will go into Your house with burnt offerings;
(G)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 Come and hear, 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 (H)If I regard iniquity in my heart,
The Lord will not hear.
19 But certainly God (I)has heard me;
He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Blessed be God,
Who has not turned away my prayer,
Nor His mercy from me!

8 Praise(A) our God, all peoples,
let the sound of his praise be heard;

and kept our feet from slipping.(C)
10 For you, God, tested(D) us;
you refined us like silver.(E)
11 You brought us into prison(F)
and laid burdens(G) on our backs.
12 You let people ride over our heads;(H)
we went through fire and water,
but you brought us to a place of abundance.(I)
13 I will come to your temple with burnt offerings(J)
and fulfill my vows(K) to you—
14 vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke
when I was in trouble.
15 I will sacrifice fat animals to you
and an offering of rams;
I will offer bulls and goats.(L)
16 Come and hear,(M) all you who fear God;
let me tell(N) you what he has done for me.
17 I cried out to him with my mouth;
his praise was on my tongue.
18 If I had cherished sin in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened;(O)
19 but God has surely listened
and has heard(P) my prayer.
20 Praise be to God,
who has not rejected(Q) my prayer
or withheld his love from me!

8 Bless our God, O peoples;
let the sound of his praise be heard,
9 who has kept our soul among the living
and (A)has not let our feet slip.
10 For you, O God, have (B)tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried.
11 You brought us into (C)the net;
you laid a crushing burden on our backs;
12 you let men (D)ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through (E)water;
yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.
13 I will come into your house with burnt offerings;
I will (F)perform my vows to you,
14 that which my lips uttered
and my mouth promised (G)when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals,
with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;
I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah
16 (H)Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and I will tell what he has done for my soul.
17 I cried to him with my mouth,
and high praise was on[a] my tongue.[b]
18 If I had (I)cherished iniquity in my heart,
(J)the Lord would not have listened.
19 But truly (K)God has listened;
he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Blessed be God,
because he has not rejected my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me!
