¹For the choir leader. A song. A psalm.
Shout for joy to God, all the earth! ²Sing about the glory of his name.
Make his praise glorious. ³Say to God, "How amazing are the things you do!
Your power is so great
that your enemies bow down in fear before you. ⁴All the earth bows down to you.
They sing praise to you.
They sing praise to your name." Selah ⁵Come and see what God has done.
His deeds for people are amazing. ⁶He turned the sea into dry land.
They walked through the waters on foot.
There we were glad in him. ⁷He rules forever by his power.
His eyes watch the nations.
Do not let those who rebel lift themselves up. Selah ⁸Bless our God, you peoples.
Let the sound of his praise be heard. ⁹He keeps us alive.
He keeps our feet from slipping. ¹⁰God, you have tested us.
You have made us pure like silver in a fire. ¹¹You led us into the net.
You put heavy loads on our backs. ¹²You let men ride over our heads.
We went through fire and water.
But you brought us to a place with plenty. ¹³I will come into your house with burnt offerings.
I will keep my promises to you. ¹⁴These are the promises my lips made.
My mouth spoke them when I was in trouble. ¹⁵I will offer you fat animals as burnt offerings.
I will offer the sweet-smelling smoke of rams.
I will offer bulls and goats. Selah ¹⁶Come and listen, all you who fear God.
I will tell you what he has done for me. ¹⁷I cried out to him with my mouth.
I praised him with my tongue. ¹⁸If I had held on to sin in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened. ¹⁹But God has surely heard.
He has paid attention to the sound of my prayer. ²⁰Bless God!
He has not turned away my prayer.
He has not kept his faithful love from me.
