Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:2
Sing forth the honour of his name:make his praiseglorious.3Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemiessubmita themselves unto thee.
4
All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name.Selah.5Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.6
He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7
He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyesbehold the nations: let not the rebelliousexalt themselves. Selah.8
O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard :
9
Which holdethb our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.10
For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried .
11
Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidstaffliction upon our loins.12
Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthyc place.
13
I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,14
Which my lips have uttered ,d and my mouth hath spoken , when I was in trouble.15
I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings,e with the incense of rams; I will offerbullocks with goats.Selah.16Come and hear , all ye that fearGod, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.17
I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolledwith my tongue.18
If I regardiniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
19
But verilyGod hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.20Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
