Psalm 66:1–12


1Shout for joy to God, | all the earth;*

         2sing the glory of his name;

         give to him | glorious praise!

3Say to God, “How awesome | are your deeds!*

         So great is your power that your enemies come cringing | to you.

4All the earth worships you

         and sings prais- | es to you;*

         they sing praises | to your name.”


5Come and see what | God has done:*

         he is awesome in his deeds toward the chil- | dren of man.

6He turned the sea into | dry land;*

         they passed through the riv- | er on foot.

There did we rejoice in him,

         7who rules by his might forever,

whose eyes keep watch on the | nations—*

         let not the rebellious ex- | alt themselves.


8Bless our God, O | peoples;*

         let the sound of his | praise be heard,

9who has kept our soul among the | living*

         and has not let our | feet slip.

10For you, O God, have | tested us;*

         you have tried us as sil- | ver is tried.

11You brought us in- | to the net;*

         you laid a crushing burden | on our backs;

12you let men ride o- | ver our heads;*

         we went through fire and through water;

yet you have brought us out to a place of a- | bundance.
