How Awesome Are Your Deeds
To the choirmaster. A Song. A Psalm.
1 #
Ps. 81:1; 95:1; 98:4; 100:1 Shout for joy to God, all the earth;
2sing the glory of his name;
# [Josh. 7:19; Isa. 42:12] give to him glorious praise!
3Say to God, #See Ps. 65:5 “How awesome are your deeds!
So great is your power that your enemies #See Ps. 18:44come cringing to you.
4 # See Ps. 22:27 All the earth worships you
and sings praises to you;
they sing praises to your name.” Selah
5 # ver. 16; Ps. 46:8 Come and see what God has done:
# [See ver. 3 above] he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.
6He #[Ex. 14:21] turned the sea into dry land;
they #Ps. 74:15; See Josh. 3:14-17passed through the river on foot.
There did we rejoice in him,
7who rules by his might forever,
whose #See Ps. 11:4eyes keep watch on the nations—
let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah
8Bless our God, O peoples;
let the sound of his praise be heard,
9who has kept our soul among the living
and #See Ps. 121:3has not let our feet slip.
10For you, O God, have #See Job 23:10tested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried.
11You brought us into #Lam. 1:13; Ezek. 12:13the net;
you laid a crushing burden on our backs;
12you let men #Isa. 51:23 ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through #Isa. 43:2water;
yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.
13I will come into your house with burnt offerings;
I will #See Ps. 50:14perform my vows to you,
14that which my lips uttered
and my mouth promised #See Ps. 18:6when I was in trouble.
15I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals,
with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;
I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah
16 # ver. 5; Ps. 34:11 Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and I will tell what he has done for my soul.
17I cried to him with my mouth,
and high praise was on#66:17 Hebrew under my tongue.#66:17 Or and he was exalted with my tongue
18If I had #Job 36:21 cherished iniquity in my heart,
# [Prov. 28:9; Isa. 59:2; John 9:31; James 4:3; See Job 27:9] the Lord would not have listened.
19But truly #Ps. 116:1, 2God has listened;
he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20Blessed be God,
because he has not rejected my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me!

1For the leader. A song. A psalm:
Shout to God, all the earth!
2Sing the glory of his name,
make his praise glorious.
3Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds!
At your great power, your enemies cringe.
4All the earth bows down to you,
sings praises to you, sings praises to your name.” (Selah)
5Come and see what God has done,
his awesome dealings with humankind.
6He turned the sea into dry land.
They passed through the river on foot;
there we rejoiced in him.
7With his power he rules forever;
his eyes keep watch on the nations.
Let no rebel arise to challenge him. (Selah)
8Bless our God, you peoples!
Let the sound of his praise be heard!
9He preserves our lives
and keeps our feet from stumbling.
10For you, God, have tested us,
refined us as silver is refined.
11You brought us into the net
and bound our bodies fast.
12You made men ride over our heads;
we went through fire and water.
But you brought us out
to a place of plenty.
13I will come into your house with burnt offerings,
I will fulfill my vows to you,
14those my lips pronounced and my mouth spoke
when I was in distress.
15I will offer you burnt offerings of fattened animals,
along with the sweet smoke of rams;
I will offer bulls and goats. (Selah)
16Come and listen, all you who fear God,
and I will tell what he has done for me.
17I cried out to him with my mouth,
his praise was on my tongue.
18Had I cherished evil thoughts,
Adonai would not have listened.
19But in fact, God did listen;
he paid attention to my prayer.
20Blessed be God, who did not reject my prayer
or turn his grace away from me.
