Psalms 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 praises to you; they sing praises to your name." Selah

5Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.

6He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river 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 exalt themselves. Selah

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 silver is tried.

11You brought us into the net; you laid a crushing burden on our backs;

12you let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.
