To the chief Musician,
A Song or Psalm.
Make a
joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:
02 Sing forth the honour of his name: make his
praise glorious.
03 Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy
works! through the greatness of thy power shall
thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
04 All the earth shall worship thee, and shall
sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name.
Selah.
05 Come and see the works of God: he is terrible
in his doing toward the children of men.
06 He turned the sea into dry land: they went
through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice
in him.
07 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes
behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt
themselves. Selah.
08 O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice
of his praise to be heard:
09 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth
not our feet to be moved.
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast
tried us, as silver is tried.

11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst
affliction upon our loins.
12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through water: but thou
broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
13 I will go into thy house with burnt offerings:
I will pay thee my vows,
14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath
spoken, when I was in trouble.
15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of
fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer
bullocks with goats. Selah.
16 Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I
will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17 I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was
extolled with my tongue.
18 If I regard 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.
20 Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my
prayer, nor his mercy from me.
