1(66) For the end, a Song of Psalm of resurrection. Shout to God, all the earth.
1Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.
2O sing praises to his name; give glory to his praise.
2O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.
3Say to God, How awful are your works! through the greatness of your power your enemies shall lie to you.
3Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.
4Let all the earth worship you, and sing to you; let them sing to your name. Pause.
4Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.
5Come and behold the works of God; [he is] terrible in [his] counsels beyond the children of men.
5By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:
6Who turns the sea into dry land; they shall go through the river on foot; there shall we rejoice in him,
6Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:
7who 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.
7Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.
8Bless our God, you⌃ Gentiles, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;
8They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
9who quickens my soul in life, and does not suffer my feet to be moved.
9Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.
10For you, O God, has proved us; you have tried us with fire as silver is tried.
10Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof.
11You brought us into the snare; you laid afflictions on our back.
11Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.
12You did mount men upon our heads; we went through the fire and water; but you brought us out into [a place of] refreshment.
12They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side.
13I will go into your house with whole burnt offerings; I will pay you my vows,
13The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.
