66:1 For the leader. A song. A psalm: Shout to God, all the earth!
66:2 Sing the glory of his name, make his praise glorious.
66:3 Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds! At your great power, your enemies cringe.
66:4 All the earth bows down to you, sings praises to you, sings praises to your name.” (Selah)
66:5 Come and see what God has done, his awesome dealings with humankind.
66:6 He turned the sea into dry land. They passed through the river on foot; there we rejoiced in him.
66:7 With his power he rules forever; his eyes keep watch on the nations. Let no rebel arise to challenge him. (Selah)
66:8 Bless our God, you peoples! Let the sound of his praise be heard!
66:9 He preserves our lives and keeps our feet from stumbling.
66:10 For you, God, have tested us, refined us as silver is refined.
66:11 You brought us into the net and bound our bodies fast.
66:12 You made men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water. But you brought us out to a place of plenty.
66:13 I will come into your house with burnt offerings, I will fulfill my vows to you,
66:14 those my lips pronounced and my mouth spoke when I was in distress.
66:15 I will offer you burnt offerings of fattened animals, along with the sweet smoke of rams; I will offer bulls and goats. (Selah)
66:16 Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for me.
66:17 I cried out to him with my mouth, his praise was on my tongue.
66:18 Had I cherished evil thoughts, Adonai would not have listened.
66:19 But in fact, God did listen; he paid attention to my prayer.
66:20 Blessed be God, who did not reject my prayer or turn his grace away from me.
