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!

Psalm 66
To the Overcomer, A Song or Psalm.
1¶ Make a joyful noise unto God, all the earth;
2sing forth the glory of his name; put glory into thy praise.
3Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
4All the earth shall worship thee and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah.
5Come and see the works of God; he is terrible in his doing toward the sons of men.
6He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot; there did we rejoice in him.
7He rules by his power for ever; his eyes watch the Gentiles; the rebellious shall not exalt themselves. Selah.
8¶ O bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9It is he who placed our soul into life and did not suffer our feet to slip.
10For thou, O God, hast proved us; thou hast refined us as silver is refined.
11Thou didst bring us into the net; thou didst lay affliction upon our loins.
12Thou hast placed a man over our head; we went through fire and through water, but thou didst bring us out into abundance.
13¶ I will go into thy house with burnt offerings; I will pay thee my vows,
14which my lips have uttered and my mouth has spoken when I was in trouble.
15I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.
16Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he has done unto 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 will not hear me:
19 But verily God has heard me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer nor his mercy from me.
