1
Shout unto God, all the earth.
2
O sing praises to his name; give glory to his praise.
3
Say unto God, How awful are thy works! through the greatness of thy power thine enemies shall lie to thee.
4
Let all the earth worship thee, and sing to thee; let them sing to thy name. Pause.
5
Come and behold the works of God; he is terrible in his counsels beyond the children of men.
6
Who turns the sea into dry land; they shall go through the river on foot; there shall we rejoice in him,
7
who by his power is Lord over the age, his eyes look upon the nations; let not them that provoke him be exalted in themselves. Pause.
8
Bless our God, ye Gentiles, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;
9
who quickens my soul in life, and does not suffer my feet to be moved.
10
For thou, O God, has proved us; thou hast tried us with fire as silver is tried.
11
Thou broughtest us into the snare; thou laidest afflictions on our back.
12
Thou didst mount men upon our heads; we went through the fire and water; but thou broughtest us out into a place of refreshment.
13
I will go into thine house with whole-burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows,
14
which my lips framed, and my mouth uttered in my affliction.
15
I will offer to thee whole-burnt-sacrifices full of marrow, with incense and rams; I will sacrifice to thee oxen with goats. Pause.
16
Come, hear, and I will tell, all ye that fear God, how great things he has done for my soul.
17
I cried to him with my mouth, and exalted him with my tongue.
18
If I have regarded iniquity in my heart, let not the Lord hearken to me.
19
Therefore God has hearkened to me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20
Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
