Context of Psalms 66:14

12Thou didst cause men to ride over our head; we went through fire and through water: but thou hast brought us out into abundance. 13I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will perform my vows to thee, Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble. 15I will offer up unto thee burnt-offerings of fatted beasts, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah. 16Come, hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
