1 Raise a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
2 Sing out the glory of his name; make his praise glorious!
3 Say to God, "How fearsome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your strength your enemies feign submission to you.
4 All the earth worships you and sings to you; they sing of your name." Selah.
5 Come and see the works of God, fearsome in his doings toward the sons of men.
6 He changed the sea into dry ground; they crossed the river on foot. There let us rejoice in him,
7 who rules forever by his strength, whose eyes watch over the nations; let not the rebellious lift themselves up. Selah.
8 Bless our God, you peoples, and make the sound of his praise heard,
9 who has set our soul among the living and has not allowed our feet to slip.
10 For you have tried us, O God; you have refined us as one refines silver.
11 You led us into the net; you put a heavy weight upon our loins.
12 You made men ride over our heads; we came through fire and water, but you brought us out into abundance.
13 I will enter your house with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my vows to you,
14 the vows my lips opened to make and my mouth spoke in my distress.
15 Burnt offerings of fatlings I will offer up to you, with the incense of rams; I will prepare bulls with goats. Selah.
16 Come, listen, all who fear God, and I will recount what he has done for my soul.
17 To him I cried with my mouth, and he was exalted with my tongue.
18 If I had looked on iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear.
19 But God has indeed heard; he has paid heed to the voice of my prayer.
20 Blessed be God, who has not turned aside my prayer, nor his steadfast love from me!
