Psalm 66:1-16

English Standard Version

How Awesome Are Your Deeds

To the choirmaster. A Song. A Psalm.

66 ^(A)Shout for joy to God, all the earth;
²    sing the glory of his name;
    ^(B)give to him glorious praise!
³Say to God, ^(C)“How awesome are your deeds!
    So great is your power that your enemies ^(D)come cringing to you.
⁴^(E)All the earth worships you
    and sings praises to you;
    they sing praises to your name.” Selah

⁵^(F)Come and see what God has done:
    ^(G)he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.
⁶He ^(H)turned the sea into dry land;
    they ^(I)passed through the river on foot.
There did we rejoice in him,
⁷    who rules by his might forever,
whose ^(J)eyes keep watch on the nations—
    let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

⁸Bless our God, O peoples;
    let the sound of his praise be heard,
⁹who has kept our soul among the living
    and ^(K)has not let our feet slip.
¹⁰For you, O God, have ^(L)tested us;
    you have tried us as silver is tried.
¹¹You brought us into ^(M)the net;
    you laid a crushing burden on our backs;
¹²you let men ^(N)ride over our heads;
    we went through fire and through ^(O)water;
yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.

¹³I will come into your house with burnt offerings;
    I will ^(P)perform my vows to you,
¹⁴that which my lips uttered
    and my mouth promised ^(Q)when I was in trouble.
¹⁵I 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
