Psalm 66:6-8
New Catholic Bible
6 He changed the sea into dry land;
they crossed the river[a] on foot.
There we rejoiced in him,
7 for he rules forever by his power.
His eyes keep watch over the nations
so that the rebellious not exalt themselves. Selah
8 [b]Bless our God, all you peoples;
let the sound of his praise be heard.
