To the chief Musician, A Song
or Psalm
. Make a joyful noise
unto God
, all ye lands
:
Sing forth the honour
of his name
: make
his praise
glorious
.
Say unto God
, How terrible
art thou in thy works
! through the greatness
of thy power
shall thine enemies
submit
themselves unto thee.
All the earth shall worship
thee, and shall sing
unto thee; they shall sing
to thy name
. Selah
.
Come and see
the works
of God
: he is terrible
in his doing
toward the children
of men
.
He turned the sea
into dry
land : they went
through the flood
on foot
: there did we rejoice
in him.
He ruleth by his power
for ever
; his eyes
behold
the nations
: let not the rebellious
exalt
themselves. Selah
.
O bless our God
, ye people
, and make the voice
of his praise
to be heard
:
Which holdeth our soul
in life
, and suffereth
not our feet
to be moved
.
For thou, O God, hast proved
us: thou hast tried
us, as silver
is tried
.
Thou broughtest us into the net
; thou laidst
affliction
upon our loins
.
Thou hast caused men to ride
over our heads
; we went
through fire
and through water
: but thou broughtest us out
into a wealthy
place .
I will go into thy house
with burnt offerings
: I will pay
thee my vows
,
Which my lips have uttered
, and my mouth
hath spoken
, when I was in trouble
.
I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices
of fatlings
, with the incense
of rams
; I will offer
bullocks
with goats
. Selah
.
Come and hear
, all ye that fear
God
, and I will declare
what he hath done
for my soul
.
I cried unto him with my mouth
, and he was extolled
with
my tongue
.
If I regard iniquity
in my heart
, the Lord
will not hear
me :
But verily God
hath heard
me ; he hath attended
to the voice
of my prayer
.
Blessed be God
, which hath not turned away
my prayer
, nor his mercy
from me.
