Psalms 66 · Clearspring

For the choirmaster. A song. A Psalm.

Make a Joyful Noise

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.+ 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!+
