1 Shout for joy to God, all the earth!2 Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious.3 Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.4 All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing the praises of your name." [^1]5 Come and see what God has done, his awesome deeds for mankind!6 He turned the sea into dry land, they passed through the waters on foot — come, let us rejoice in him.7 He rules forever by his power, his eyes watch the nations — let not the rebellious rise up against him.8 Praise our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard;9 he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping.10 For you, God, tested us; you refined us like silver.11 You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs.12 You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.13 I will come to your temple with burnt offerings and fulfill my vows to you —14 vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.15 I will sacrifice fat animals to you and an offering of rams; I will offer bulls and goats.16 Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.17 I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.18 If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;19 but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer.20 Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!

1 Make a joyful noise to God, all you lands:2 Sing forth the honor of his name: make his praise glorious.3 Say to God, How terrible are you in your works! through the greatness of your power shall your enemies submit themselves to you.4 All the earth shall worship you, and shall sing to you; they shall sing to your name. Selah.5 Come 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 rules by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.8 O bless our God, you people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:9 Which holds our soul in life, and suffers not our feet to be moved.10 For you, O God, have proved us: you have tried us, as silver is tried.11 You brought us into the net; you laid affliction on our loins.12 You have caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but you brought us out into a wealthy place.13 I will go into your house with burnt offerings: I will pay you my vows,14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth has spoken, when I was in trouble.15 I will offer to you burnt sacrifices of fatted calves, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.16 Come and hear, all you that fear God, and I will declare what he has done for my soul.17 I cried to him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:19 But truly God has heard me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.20 Blessed be God, which has not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
