PSALM 66
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1All lands to God in joyful sounds,
aloft your voices raise.
2Sing forth the honour of his name,
and glorious make his praise.
3Say unto God, How terrible
in all thy works art thou!
Through thy great pow'r thy foes to thee
shall be constrain'd to bow.
4All on the earth shall worship thee,
they shall thy praise proclaim
In songs: they shall sing cheerfully
unto thy holy name.
5Come, and the works that God hath wrought
with admiration see:
In's working to the sons of men
most terrible is he.
6Into dry land the sea he turn'd,
and they a passage had;
Ev'n marching through the flood on foot,
there we in him were glad.
7He ruleth ever by his pow'r;
his eyes the nations see:
O let not the rebellious ones
lift up themselves on high.
8Ye people, bless our God; aloud
the voice speak of his praise:
9Our soul in life who safe preserves,
our foot from sliding stays.
10For thou didst prove and try us, Lord,
as men do silver try;
11Brought'st us into the net,
and mad'st bands on our loins to lie.
12Thou hast caus'd men ride o'er our heads;
and though that we did pass
Through fire and water, yet thou brought'st
us to a wealthy place.
13I'll bring burnt off 'rings to thy house;
to thee my vows I'll pay,
14Which my lips utter'd, my mouth spake,
when trouble on me lay.
15Burnt-sacrifices of fat rams
with incense I will bring;
Of bullocks and of goats I will
present an offering.
16All that fear God, come, hear, I'll tell
what he did for my soul.
17I with my mouth unto him cry'd,
my tongue did him extol.
18If in my heart I sin regard,
the Lord me will not hear:
19But surely God me heard,
and to my prayer's voice gave ear.
20O let the Lord, our gracious God,
for ever blessed be,
Who turned not my pray'r from him,
nor yet his grace from me.

To the Heavenly Worship Leader, A Song [or] Psalm (sacred song about or to God).
1Make a joyful noise unto God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], all you2f lands:
2Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
3Say unto God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], How terrible [are youi in] youri works! through the greatness of youri power shall youri enemies submit themselves unto youi.
4All the earth shall worship youi, and shall sing unto youi; they shall sing [to] youri name. Selah [stop and diligently consider what was just said].
5Come and see the works of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]: [he is] terrible [in his] doing toward the children of men.
6He turned the sea into dry [land]: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7He rules by his power forever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah [stop and diligently consider what was just said].
8O bless our God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], you2f people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
9Which holds our soul in life, and suffers not our feet to be moved.
10For youi, O God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], have proved us: youi have tried us, as silver is tried.
11youi brought us into the net; youi laid affliction upon our loins (thigh and groin area; often used for the reproductive organs).
12youi have caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but youi brought us out into a wealthy [place].
13I will go into youri house with burnt offerings: I will pay youi my vows,
14Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth has spoken, when I was in trouble.
15I will offer unto youi burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah [stop and diligently consider what was just said].
16Come [and] hear, all you2f that fear God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and I will declare what he has done for my soul.
17I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord-Adonai (The Father) [Greatest Above All Things] will not hear [me]:
19 [But] truly God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] has heard [me]; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [be] God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], which has not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
