1 Shout to God, all the earth.

2 O sing praises to his name; give glory to his praise.

3 Say to God, How awful are your works! through the greatness of your power your enemies shall lie to you.

4 Let all the earth worship you, and sing to you; let them sing to your 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 * Or, has dominion for ever. 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, you° 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 you, O God, has proved us; you have tried us with fire as silver is tried.

11 You brought us into the snare; you laid afflictions on our back.

12 You did mount men upon our heads; we went through the fire and water; but you brought us out into a place of refreshment.

13 I will go into your house with whole burnt offerings; I will pay you my vows,

14 which my lips framed, and my mouth uttered in my affliction.

15 I will offer to you whole burnt sacrifices full of marrow, with incense and rams; I will sacrifice to you oxen with goats. Pause.

16 Come, hear, and I will tell, all you° 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 listen to me.

19 Therefore God has listened 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.
