Chapter 66 |
1 | Make a joyful
noise unto God, all ye lands: |
2 | Sing forth the honour of his name: make
his praise glorious. |
3 | Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy
works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves
unto thee. |
4
| All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto
thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah. |
5 | Come and see the works of
God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men. |
6 | He
turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we
rejoice in him. |
7 | He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the
nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah. |
8 | O bless
our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: |
9 |
Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
|
10 | For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is
tried. |
11
| Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction
upon our loins. |
12 | Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we
went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy
place. |
13
| I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay
thee my vows, |
14 | Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath
spoken, when I was in trouble. |
15 | I will offer unto thee burnt
sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with
goats. Selah. |
16 | Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will
declare what he hath done for my soul. |
17 | I cried unto him with my
mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue. |
18 | If I regard iniquity in
my heart, the Lord will not hear me: |
19 | But verily God hath heard me;
he hath attended to the voice of my prayer. |
20 | Blessed be God, which
hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me. |
