Psalm 66:8-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
8 Bless our God, O peoples;
let the sound of his praise be heard,(A)
9 who has kept us among the living
and has not let our feet slip.(B)
10 For you, O God, have tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried.(C)
11 You brought us into the net;
you laid burdens on our backs;(D)
12 you let people ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through water;
yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.[a](E)

Psalm 66:8-12
Common English Bible
8 All you nations, bless our God!
Let the sound of his praise be heard!
9 God preserved us among the living;
he didn’t let our feet slip a bit.
10 But you, God, have tested us—
you’ve refined us like silver,
11 trapped us in a net,
laid burdens on our backs,
12 let other people run right over our heads—
we’ve been through fire and water.
But you brought us out to freedom!
