Psalm.
Chapter 66.
For the choirmaster. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth! 
Sing the glory of His name; make His praise glorious. 
Say to God, “How awesome are Your deeds! So great is Your power that Your enemies cower before You. 
All the earth bows down to You; they sing praise to You; they sing praise to Your name.” 
Come and see the works of God; how awesome are His deeds toward mankind. 
He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the waters on foot; there we rejoiced in Him. 
He rules forever by His power; His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. 
Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of His praise be heard. 
He preserves our lives and keeps our feet from slipping. 
For You, O God, have tested us; You have refined us like silver. 
You led us into the net; You laid burdens on our backs. 
You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but You brought us into abundance. 
I will enter Your house with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my vows to You— 
the vows that my lips promised and my mouth spoke in my distress. 
I will offer You fatlings as burnt offerings, with the fragrant smoke of rams; I will offer bulls and goats. 
Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for me. 
I cried out to Him with my mouth and praised Him with my tongue. 
If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened. 
But God has surely heard; He has attended to the sound of my prayer. 
Blessed be God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld from me His loving devotion!
