Psalms 65

1 For the end, a Song of a Psalm of resurrection. Shout unto God, all the earth. 2 O sing praises to his name; Give glory to his praise. 3 Say unto God, How awful are thy works! Through the greatness of thy power thine enemies shall lie to thee. 4 Let all the earth worship thee, and sing to thee; Let them sing to thy name. Pause. 5 Come and behold the works of God; He is terrible in his counsels beyond the children of men. 6 Who turns the sea into dry land; They shall go through the river on foot; There shall we rejoice in him, 7 Who by his power is Lord over the age, His eyes look upon the nations; Let not them that provoke him be exalted in themselves. Pause. 8 Bless our God, ye Gentiles, And make the voice of his praise to be heard; 9 Who quickens my soul in life, And does not suffer my feet to be moved. 10 For thou, O God, hast proved us; Thou hast tried us with fire as silver is tried. 11 Thou broughtest us into the snare; Thou laidest afflictions on our back. 12 Thou didst mount men upon our heads; We went through fire and water; But thou broughtest us out into a place of refreshment. 13 I will go into thy house with whole burnt offerings; I will pay thee my vows, 14 Which my lips framed, And my mouth uttered in my affliction. 15 I will offer to thee whole burnt sacrifices full of marrow, With incense and rams; I will sacrifice to thee oxen with goats. Pause. 16 Come, hear, and I will tell, All ye that fear God, How great things he has done for my soul. 17 I cried to him with my mouth, and exalted him with my tongue. 18 If I have regarded iniquity in my heart, Let not the Lord hearken to me. 19 Therefore God has hearkened to me; He has attended to the voice of my prayer. 20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, Nor his mercy from me.
