Psalm 66

New King James Version

Praise to God for His Awesome Works

To the Chief Musician. A Song. A Psalm.

66 Make ^(A)a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
²Sing out the honor of His name;
Make His praise glorious.
³Say to God,
“How ^(B)awesome are Your works!
^(C)Through the greatness of Your power
Your enemies shall submit themselves to You.
⁴^(D)All the earth shall worship You
And sing praises to You;
They shall sing praises to Your name.” Selah

⁵Come and see the works of God;
He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men.
⁶^(E)He turned the sea into dry land;
^(F)They went through the river on foot.
There we will rejoice in Him.
⁷He rules by His power forever;
His eyes observe the nations;
Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

⁸Oh, bless our God, you peoples!
And make the voice of His praise to be heard,
⁹Who keeps our soul among the living,
And does not allow our feet to ^[a]be moved.
¹⁰For ^(G)You, O God, have tested us;
^(H)You have refined us as silver is refined.
¹¹^(I)You brought us into the net;
You laid affliction on our backs.
¹²^(J)You have caused men to ride over our heads;
^(K)We went through fire and through water;
But You brought us out to ^[b]rich fulfillment.

¹³^(L)I will go into Your house with burnt offerings;
^(M)I will pay You my ^[c]vows,
¹⁴Which my lips have uttered
And my mouth has spoken when I was in trouble.
¹⁵I will offer You burnt sacrifices of fat animals,
With the sweet aroma of rams;
I will offer bulls with goats. Selah

¹⁶Come and hear, all you who fear God,
And I will declare what He has done for my soul.
¹⁷I cried to Him with my mouth,
And He was ^[d]extolled with my tongue.
¹⁸^(N)If I regard iniquity in my heart,
The Lord will not hear.
¹⁹But certainly God ^(O)has heard me;
He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
