Geneva1599 - Psalms - 66

66:1  To him that excelleth. A song or Psalme. Rejoice in God, all ye inhabitants of the earth.

66:2  Sing forth the glory of his name: make his praise glorious.

66:3  Say vnto God, Howe terrible art thou in thy workes! through the greatnesse of thy power shall thine enemies be in subiection vnto thee.

66:4  All the worlde shall worship thee, and sing vnto thee, euen sing of thy Name. Selah.

66:5  Come and beholde the workes of God: he is terrible in his doing towarde the sonnes of men.

66:6  He hath turned the Sea into drie land: they passe through the riuer on foote: there did we reioyce in him.

66:7  He ruleth the worlde with his power: his eyes beholde the nations: the rebellious shall not exalt them selues. Selah.

66:8  Prayse our God, ye people, and make the voyce of his prayse to be heard.

66:9  Which holdeth our soules in life, and suffereth not our feete to slippe.

66:10  For thou, O God, hast proued vs, thou hast tryed vs as siluer is tryed.

66:11  Thou hast brought vs into the snare, and layed a strait chaine vpon our loynes.

66:12  Thou hast caused men to ryde ouer our heads: we went into fire and into water, but thou broughtest vs out into a welthie place.

66:13  I will go into thine House with burnt offrings, and will pay thee my vowes,

66:14  Which my lippes haue promised, and my mouth hath spoken in mine affliction.

66:15  I will offer vnto thee the burnt offerings of fat rammes with incense: I will prepare bullocks and goates. Selah.

66:16  Come and hearken, all ye that feare God, and I will tell you what he hath done to my soule.

66:17  I called vnto him with my mouth, and he was exalted with my tongue.

66:18  If I regard wickednesse in mine heart, the Lord will not heare me.

66:19  But God hath heard me, and considered the voyce of my prayer.

66:20  Praysed be God, which hath not put backe my prayer, nor his mercie from me.
