Psalm 66
Skip to chapter navigationChapters
1Make a joyful noise to God,
all the earth!
2Sing the glory of His name;
make His praise glorious.
3Say to God, “How awesome are Your deeds!
So great is Your power
that Your enemies cower before You.
4All the earth bows down to You;
they sing praise to You;
they sing praise to Your name.”
Selah
5Come and see the works of God;
how awesome are His deeds toward mankind.
6He turned the sea into dry land;
they passed through the waters on foot;
there we rejoiced in Him.
7He rules forever by His power;
His eyes watch the nations.
Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves.
Selah
8Bless our God, O peoples;
let the sound of His praise be heard.
9He preserves our lives
and keeps our feet from slipping.
10For You , O God, have tested us;
You have refined us like silver.
11You led us into the net;
You laid burdens on our backs.
12You let men ride over our heads;
we went through fire and water,
but You brought us into abundance.
13I will enter Your house with burnt offerings;
I will fulfill my vows to You —
14the vows that my lips promised
and my mouth spoke in my distress.
15I will offer You fatlings as burnt offerings,
with the fragrant smoke of rams;
I will offer bulls and goats.
Selah
16Come and listen, all you who fear God,
and I will declare what He has done for me.
17I cried out to Him with my mouth
and praised Him with my tongue.[1]
18If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened.
19But God has surely heard;
He has attended to the sound of my prayer.
20Blessed be God, who has not rejected my prayer
or withheld from me His loving devotion!
