Psalms 66

1TO THE OVERSEER. A SONG. A PSALM. Shout to God, all the earth.

2Praise the glory of His Name, || Make honorable His praise.

3Say to God, “How fearful Your works—By the abundance of Your strength, || Your enemies feign obedience to You.

4All the earth bows to You, || They sing praise to You, they praise Your Name.” Selah.

5Come, and see the works of God, || Fearful acts toward the sons of men.

6He has turned a sea to dry land, || Through a river they pass over on foot, || There we rejoice in Him.

7Ruling by His might for all time, || His eyes watch among the nations, || The stubborn do not exalt themselves. Selah.

8Bless our God you peoples, || And sound the voice of His praise,

9Who has placed our soul in life, || And has not permitted our feet to be moved.

10For You have tried us, O God, || You have refined us as the refining of silver.

11You have brought us into a net, || You have placed pressure on our loins.

12You have caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, || And You bring us out to a watered place.

13I enter Your house with burnt-offerings, || I complete my vows to You,

14For my lips were opened, || And my mouth spoke in my distress:

15“I offer to You burnt-offerings of fatlings, || With incense of rams, I prepare a bullock with male goats.” Selah.

16Come, hear, all you who fear God, || And I recount what He did for my soul.

17I have called to Him [with] my mouth, || And exaltation [is] under my tongue.

18Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, || The Lord does not hear.

19But God has heard, || He has attended to the voice of my prayer.

20Blessed [is] God, || Who has not turned aside my prayer, || And His loving-kindness, from me!
