1Make a joyful noise unto GodH430, all the earthH776:2SingH2167 forth the gloryH3519 of his nameH8034:MakeH7760 his praiseH8416 glorious.3SayH559 unto GodH430, HowH4100 terrible are thy worksH4639!Through the greatnessH7230 of thy power shall thine enemiesH341 submit themselves unto thee.4All the earthH776 shall worship thee,And shall singH2167 unto thee;They shall singH2167 to thy nameH8034.[SelahH55425Come, and seeH7200 the works of GodH430;He is terrible in his doing toward the children of menH120.6He turnedH2015 the seaH3220 into dryH3004 landH3004;They went through the riverH5104 on footH7272:There did we rejoiceH8055 in him.7He ruleth by his might for everH5769;His eyesH5869 observe the nationsH1471:Let not the rebelliousH5637 exaltH7311 themselves.[SelahH55428Oh blessH1288 our GodH430, ye peoplesH5971,And makeH8085 the voiceH6963 of his praiseH8416 to be heardH8085;9Who holdeth our soulH5315 in lifeH5315,And suffereth not our feetH7272 to be moved.10For thou, O GodH430, hast proved us:Thou hast tried us, as silverH3701 is tried.11Thou broughtest us into the netH4686;Thou layedst a sore burden upon our loinsH4975.12Thou didst causeH7392 men to rideH7392 over our headsH7218;We wentH3318 through fireH784 and through waterH4325;But thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.13I will comeH935 into thy houseH1004 with burnt-offerings;I will payH7999 thee my vowsH5088,14Which my lipsH8193 uttered,And my mouthH6310 spake, whenH834 I was in distressH6862.15I will offerH5927 unto thee burnt-offerings of fatlings,With the incenseH7004 of ramsH352;I will offerH5927 bullocks with goatsH6260.[SelahH554216Come, and hearH8085, all ye that fearH3373 GodH430,And I will declare what he hath done for my soulH5315.17I cried unto him with my mouthH6310,And he was extolled with my tongueH3956.18If I regard iniquity in my heartH3820,The LordH136 will not hearH8085:19But verily GodH430 hath heardH8085;He hath attended to the voiceH6963 of my prayerH8605.20BlessedH1288 be GodH430,Who hath not turnedH5493 awayH5493 my prayerH8605,Nor his lovingkindness from me.
