¹ For the Chief Musician. A song, a Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth:² Sing forth the glory of his name: Make his praise glorious.³ Say to God, How awesome are 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] awesome in his doing toward the sons of man.⁶ He turned the sea into dry land; They went through the river on foot: There we rejoiced in him.⁷ He rules by his might forever; His eyes observe the nations: Don't let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

⁸ Oh bless our God, you peoples, And make the voice of his praise to be heard;⁹ Who holds our soul in life, And does not allow 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 an intense burden on our loins.¹² You caused common man to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But you brought us out into abundance.

¹³ I will come into your house with burnt-offerings; I will pay you my vows,¹⁴ Which my lips uttered, And my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.¹⁵ I will offer to you burnt-offerings of fatlings, 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:¹⁹ But truly God has heard; He has attended to the voice of my prayer.²⁰ Blessed be God, Who has not turned away my prayer, Nor his loving-kindness from me.
