1 | Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth! |
2 | Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise! |
3 | Tell God, "How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you. |
4 | All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name." Selah. |
5 | Come, and see God's deeds-- awesome work on behalf of the children of men. |
6 | He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him. |
7 | He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Don't let the rebellious rise up against him. Selah. |
8 | Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard, |
9 | who preserves our life among the living, and doesn't allow our feet to be moved. |
10 | For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined. |
11 | You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs. |
12 | You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you brought us to the place of abundance. |
13 | I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you, |
14 | which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress. |
15 | I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. Selah. |
16 | Come, and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul. |
17 | I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue. |
18 | If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord wouldn't have listened. |
19 | But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer. |
20 | Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me. Psalm 67 For the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Psalm. A song. |
