[1] TO THE OVERSEER. A SONG. A PSALM. Shout to God, all the earth. [2] Praise the glory of His Name, || Make honorable His praise. [3] Say to God, “How fearful Your works—By the abundance of Your strength, || Your enemies feign obedience to You. [4] All the earth bows to You, || They sing praise to You, they praise Your Name.” Selah. [5] Come, and see the works of God, || Fearful acts toward the sons of men. [6] He has turned a sea to dry land, || Through a river they pass over on foot, || There we rejoice in Him. [7] Ruling by His might for all time, || His eyes watch among the nations, || The stubborn do not exalt themselves. Selah. [8] Bless our God you peoples, || And sound the voice of His praise, [9] Who has placed our soul in life, || And has not permitted our feet to be moved. [10] For You have tried us, O God, || You have refined us as the refining of silver. [11] You have brought us into a net, || You have placed pressure on our loins. [12] You have caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, || And You bring us out to a watered place. [13] I enter Your house with burnt-offerings, || I complete my vows to You, [14] For my lips were opened, || And my mouth spoke in my distress: [15] “I offer to You burnt-offerings of fatlings, || With incense of rams, I prepare a bullock with male goats.” Selah. [16] Come, hear, all you who fear God, || And I recount what He did for my soul. [17] I have called to Him [with] my mouth, || And exaltation [is] under my tongue. [18] Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, || The Lord does not hear. [19] But God has heard, || He has attended to the voice of my prayer. [20] Blessed [is] God, || Who has not turned aside my prayer, || And His loving-kindness, from me!
