Psalms 66:14 In-Context

12 You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, But you brought us to the place of abundance.

13 I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,

15 I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, With the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. Selah.

16 Come, and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.
