Psalms

1 To the chief musician. A Song. A Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;

2 Sing out the honor of His name; give glory to His praise.

3 Say to God, How much to be feared are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power, Your enemies pretend obedience to You.

4 All the earth shall worship You; and they sing to You; they praise Your name. Selah.

5 Come and see God's works, who is feared in His acts toward the sons of men.

6 He turns the sea into dry land; they go through the river on foot; there we will rejoice with Him.

7 He rules by His power forever; His eyes search out the nations; let not the rebels exalt themselves. Selah.

8 Bless our God, O peoples, and make heard the voice of His praise;

9 Who holds our soul in life and does not allow our foot to slide.

10 For You, O God, have proved us; You have tested us as silver is refined.

11 You have brought us into the net; You laid afflictions on our loins.

12 You have let men ride at our head; we went through fire and through water, but You brought us out to plenty.

13 I will go into Your house with burnt offerings; I will pay You my vows,

14 which my lips have opened, and my mouth has spoken in my trouble.

15 I will offer burnt sacrifices of fatlings to You, with the incense of rams; I will offer bulls with goats. Selah.

16 Come, hear, and let me recount, all you who fear God, what He has done for my soul.

17 I cried to Him with my mouth, and exaltations were under my tongue.

18 If I had regarded iniquity in my heart, Jehovah would not have heard.

19 Surely, God has heard; He has attended to the voice of my prayer.

20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer and His mercy from me!
