BSB PSA Chapter 66

Make a Joyful Noise

(Psalm 100:1–5)

66 

66 For the choirmaster. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth!

2 Sing the glory of His name; make His praise glorious.

3 Say to God, “How awesome are Your deeds So great is Your power that Your enemies cower before You.

4 All the earth bows down to You; they sing praise to You; they sing praise to Your name.” Selah

5 Come and see the works of God; how awesome are His deeds toward mankind.

6 He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the waters on foot; there we rejoiced in Him.

7 He rules forever by His power; His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

8 Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of His praise be heard.

9 He preserves our lives and keeps our feet from slipping.

10 For You , O God, have tested us; You have refined us like silver

11 You led us into the net; You laid burdens on our backs.

12 You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but You brought us into abundance.

13 I will enter Your house with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my vows to You—

14 [the vows] that my lips promised and my mouth spoke in my distress

15 I will offer You fatlings as burnt offerings, with the fragrant smoke of rams; I will offer bulls and goats. Selah

16 Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for me.

17 I cried out to Him with my mouth and praised Him with my tongue.[fn]

18 If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.

19 But God has surely heard; He has attended to the sound of my prayer.

20 Blessed [be] God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld from me His loving devotion!
