(KJV) Psalm 66¹

⥃Make a Joyful Noise ^{[ Psalms 100:1–5 ]}

To the chief Musician, A Song [or] Psalm.

[1] Make² a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands³:⁴ [2] Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.⁵ [3] Say unto God, How terrible⁶ [art thou in] thy works! through⁷ the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves⁸ unto thee. [4] All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing [to] thy name. Selah.⁹ [5] Come¹⁰ and see the works of God: [he is] terrible¹¹ [in his] doing toward the children of men. [6] He turned¹² the sea into dry [land]: they¹³ went through the flood on foot: there¹⁴ did we rejoice in him. [7] He ruleth¹⁵ by his power for ever; his eyes¹⁶ behold the nations: let¹⁷ not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah. [8] O bless¹⁸ our God, ye people, and make¹⁹ the voice of his praise to be heard: [9] Which holdeth²⁰ our soul in life, and suffereth²¹ not our feet to be moved. [10] For thou, O God, hast proved us²²: thou hast tried²³ us, as silver is tried. [11] Thou broughtest²⁴ us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon²⁵ our loins. [12] Thou hast caused²⁶ men to ride over our heads; we went through²⁷ fire and through water: but thou²⁸ broughtest us out into a wealthy²⁹ [place]. [13] I will go into³⁰ thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay³¹ thee my vows, [14] Which my lips have uttered³², and my mouth³³ hath spoken, when³⁴ I was in trouble. [15] I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings³⁵, with the³⁶ incense of rams; I will offer³⁷ bullocks with goats. Selah. [16] Come³⁸ [and] hear, all ye that fear God, and I will³⁹ declare what he hath done for my soul. [17] I cried⁴⁰ unto him with my mouth, and he was⁴¹ extolled with my tongue. [18] If I regard⁴² iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear [me]: [19] [But] verily God hath heard [me]; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.⁴³ [20] Blessed [be] God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me. ⁴⁴
