Psalms 66:1-12

1Make a joyful noiseH7321 unto GodH430, all ye landsH776:1

2Sing forthH2167 the honourH3519 of his nameH8034: makeH7760 his praiseH8416 gloriousH3519.

3SayH559 unto GodH430, How terribleH3372 art thou in thy worksH4639! through the greatnessH7230 of thy powerH5797 shall thine enemiesH341 submitH3584 themselves unto thee.2

4All the earthH776 shall worshipH7812 thee, and shall singH2167 unto thee; they shall singH2167 to thy nameH8034. SelahH5542.

5ComeH3212 and seeH7200 the worksH4659 of GodH430: he is terribleH3372 in his doingH5949 toward the childrenH1121 of menH120.

6He turnedH2015 the seaH3220 into dryH3004 land: they wentH5674 through the floodH5104 on footH7272: there did we rejoiceH8055 in him.

7He rulethH4910 by his powerH1369 for everH5769; his eyesH5869 beholdH6822 the nationsH1471: let not the rebelliousH5637 exaltH7311 themselves. SelahH5542.

8O blessH1288 our GodH430, ye peopleH5971, and make the voiceH6963 of his praiseH8416 to be heardH8085:

9Which holdethH7760 our soulH5315 in lifeH2416, and sufferethH5414 not our feetH7272 to be movedH4132.3

10For thou, O GodH430, hast provedH974 us: thou hast triedH6884 us, as silverH3701 is triedH6884.

11Thou broughtestH935 us into the netH4686; thou laidstH7760 afflictionH4157 upon our loinsH4975.

12Thou hast caused menH582 to rideH7392 over our headsH7218; we wentH935 through fireH784 and through waterH4325: but thou broughtest us outH3318 into a place of abundanceH7310.4
