1  ^vShout for joy to God, all the earth;

2  ^wsing the glory of his name;

give to him glorious praise!

3  Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds!

So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you.

4  All the earth worships you

and sings praises to you;

they sing praises to your name.” Selah

5  ^xCome and see what God has done:

he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.

6  ^yHe turned the sea into dry land;

^zthey passed through the river on foot.

There did we rejoice in him,

7  ^awho rules by his might forever,

whose eyes keep watch on the nations—

let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

8  Bless our God, O peoples;

let the sound of his praise be heard,

9  who has kept our soul among the living

and has not let our ^bfeet slip.

10  For you, O God, have ^ctested us;

you have tried us as silver is tried.

11  You brought us into the net;

you laid a crushing burden on our backs;

12  you let men ride over our heads;

we went through fire and through water;

yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.

13  I will come into your house with burnt offerings;

I will perform my vows to you,

14  that which my lips uttered

and my mouth promised when I was in trouble.

15  I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals,

with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;

I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah

16  ^dCome and hear, all you who fear God,

and I will tell what he has done for my soul.

17  I cried to him with my mouth,

and ^ehigh praise was on¹ my tongue.²

18  If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,

the Lord would not have listened.

19  But truly God has listened;

he has attended to the voice of my prayer.

20  Blessed be God,

because he has not rejected my prayer

or removed his steadfast love from me!
