| 1 | To the Overseer. -- A Song, a Psalm. Shout ye to God, all the earth. |
| 2 | Praise ye the honour of His name, Make ye honourable His praise. |
| 3 | Say to God, `How fearful [are] Thy works, By the abundance of Thy strength, Thine enemies feign obedience to Thee. |
| 4 | All the earth do bow to Thee, They sing praise to Thee, they praise Thy name.` Selah. |
| 5 | Come ye, and see the works of God, Fearful acts toward the sons of men. |
| 6 | He hath turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass over on foot, There do we rejoice in Him. |
| 7 | Ruling by His might to the age, His eyes among the nations do watch, The refractory exalt not themselves. Selah. |
| 8 | Bless, ye peoples, our God, And sound the voice of His praise, |
| 9 | Who hath placed our soul in life, And suffered not our feet to be moved. |
| 10 | For Thou hast tried us, O God, Thou hast refined us as the refining of silver. |
| 11 | Thou hast brought us into a net, Thou hast placed pressure on our loins. |
| 12 | Thou hast caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, And Thou bringest us out to a watered place. |
| 13 | I enter Thy house with burnt-offerings, I complete to Thee my vows, |
| 14 | For opened were my lips, And my mouth spake in my distress: |
| 15 | `Burnt-offerings of fatlings I offer to Thee, With perfume of rams, I prepare a bullock with he-goats.` Selah. |
| 16 | Come, hear, all ye who fear God, And I recount what he did for my soul. |
| 17 | Unto Him [with] my mouth I have called, And exaltation [is] under my tongue. |
| 18 | Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, The Lord doth not hear. |
| 19 | But God hath heard, He hath attended to the voice of my prayer. |
| 20 | Blessed [is] God, Who hath not turned aside my prayer, And His loving-kindness, from me! |
