Psalms 66

¹Shout joyful praises to God, all the earth!

²Sing about the glory of his name! Tell the world how glorious he is.

³Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! Your enemies cringe before your mighty power.

⁴Everything on earth will worship you; they will sing your praises, shouting your name in glorious songs.” Interlude

⁵Come and see what our God has done, what awesome miracles he performs for people!

⁶He made a dry path through the Red Sea, and his people went across on foot. There we rejoiced in him.

⁷For by his great power he rules forever. He watches every movement of the nations; let no rebel rise in defiance. Interlude

⁸Let the whole world bless our God and loudly sing his praises.

⁹Our lives are in his hands, and he keeps our feet from stumbling.

¹⁰You have tested us, O God; you have purified us like silver.

¹¹You captured us in your net and laid the burden of slavery on our backs.

¹²Then you put a leader over us. We went through fire and flood, but you brought us to a place of great abundance.

¹³Now I come to your Temple with burnt offerings to fulfill the vows I made to you—

¹⁴yes, the sacred vows that I made when I was in deep trouble.

¹⁵That is why I am sacrificing burnt offerings to you— the best of my rams as a pleasing aroma, and a sacrifice of bulls and male goats. Interlude

¹⁶Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will tell you what he did for me.

¹⁷For I cried out to him for help, praising him as I spoke.

¹⁸If I had not confessed the sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.

¹⁹But God did listen! He paid attention to my prayer.

²⁰Praise God, who did not ignore my prayer or withdraw his unfailing love from me.
