Psalms 66:1-10

Psalm 66

For the music director; a song, a psalm.

66:1 Shout out praise to God, all the earth!

66:2 Sing praises about the majesty of his reputation!

Give him the honor he deserves!

66:3 Say to God:

“How awesome are your deeds!

Because of your great power your enemies cower in fear before you.

66:4 All the earth worships you

and sings praises to you!

They sing praises to your name!” (Selah)

66:5 Come and witness God’s exploits!

His acts on behalf of people are awesome!

66:6 He turned the sea into dry land;

they passed through the river on foot.

Let us rejoice in him there!

66:7 He rules by his power forever;

he watches the nations.

Stubborn rebels should not exalt themselves. (Selah)

66:8 Praise our God, you nations!

Loudly proclaim his praise!

66:9 He preserves our lives

and does not allow our feet to slip.

66:10 For you, O God, tested us;

you purified us like refined silver.
