To the chief Musician,
A Song
or Psalm.
Make a joyful noise
unto God,
all ye lands:
Sing forth
the honour
of his name:
make
his praise
glorious.
Say
unto God,
How terrible
art thou in thy works!
through the greatness
of thy power
shall thine enemies
submit
themselves unto thee.
All the earth
shall worship
thee, and shall sing
unto thee; they shall sing
to thy name.
Selah.
Come
and see
the works
of God:
he is terrible
in his doing
toward the children
of men.
He turned
the sea
into dry
land: they went
through the flood
on foot:
there did we rejoice
in him.
He ruleth
by his power
for ever;
his eyes
behold
the nations:
let not the rebellious
exalt
themselves. Selah.

O bless
our God,
ye people,
and make the voice
of his praise
to be heard:
Which holdeth
our soul
in life,
and suffereth
not our feet
to be moved.
For thou, O God,
hast proved
us: thou hast tried
us, as silver
is tried.
Thou broughtest
us into the net;
thou laidst
affliction
upon our loins.
Thou hast caused men
to ride
over our heads;
we went
through fire
and through water:
but thou broughtest us out
into a wealthy
place.
I will go
into thy house
with burnt offerings:
I will pay
thee my vows,
Which my lips
have uttered,
and my mouth
hath spoken,
when I was in trouble.
I will offer
unto thee burnt sacrifices
of fatlings,
with the incense
of rams;
I will offer
bullocks
with goats.
Selah.
Come
and hear,
all ye that fear
God,
and I will declare
what he hath done
for my soul.
I cried
unto him with my mouth,
and he was extolled
with
my tongue.
If I regard
iniquity
in my heart,
the Lord
will not hear
me:
But verily
God
hath heard
me; he hath attended
to the voice
of my prayer.
Blessed
be God,
which hath not turned away
my prayer,
nor his mercy
from me.
