1
To the victor; a song, a psalm.
Shout to God, all the earth!
2
Sing··psalms··to the glory of His name;
make His praise to be glory.
3
Say to God, How fearsome are Thy deeds!
In the multitude of Thy strength shall Thine enemies denounce themselves to Thee.
4
All the earth shall bow··down to Thee; and shall sing··psalms to Thee,
they shall sing··psalms··to Thy name. Selah.
5
Go and see the works of God;
Fearsome are His actions for▵ the sons of man.
6
He turned the sea to dry land; they passed through the river on◦ foot:
there we were··glad in Him.
7
He rules in His eternal might; His eyes watch over◦ the nations;
let not the defiant exalt themselves. Selah.
8
Bless our God, ye peoples,
and make the voice of His praise to be heard:
9
who sets our soul among◦ the living,
and suffers not our foot to be moved.
10
For Thou, O God, hast tested us;
Thou hast refined us as silver is refined.
11
Thou broughtest us into the hunting net*;
Thou didst set oppression upon◦ our loins.
12
Thou didst cause man▵ to ride over our head; we came into fire and into water;
but Thou didst bring· us ·out to abundance.
13
I will come··into Thy house with burnt··offerings,
I will pay to Thee my vows,
14
with which my lips have opened··wide,
and which my mouth has spoken, in my adversity.
15
I will offer··up to Thee burnt··offerings of marrows, with incense of rams;
I will make an offering of cattle with he-goats. Selah.
16
Go, hear! All ye who fear God,
and I will recount◦ what He has done for my soul.
17
I called to▵ Him with my mouth,
and He was exalted with my tongue.
18
If I see iniquity◦ in my heart,
the Lord will not hear;
19
But surely God has heard;
He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20
Blessed be God, Who has not turned··aside my prayer,
nor◦ His mercy from◦ me.
