Psalms 66:1-12

1Let the whole earth shout joyfully to God!

2Sing about the glory of his name; make his praise glorious.

3Say to God, “How awe-inspiring are your works! Your enemies will cringe before you because of your great strength.

4The whole earth will worship you and sing praise to you. They will sing praise to your name.”Selah

5Come and see the wonders of God; his acts for humanity are awe-inspiring.

6He turned the sea into dry land, and they crossed the river on foot. There we rejoiced in him.

7He rules forever by his might; he keeps his eye on the nations. The rebellious should not exalt themselves.Selah

8Bless our God, you peoples; let the sound of his praise be heard.

9He keeps us alive and does not allow our feet to slip.

10For you, God, tested us; you refined us as silver is refined.

11You lured us into a trap; you placed burdens on our backs.

12You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us out to abundance.
