1 Be joyful in God, all the earth; ♦︎
sing the glory of his name;
sing the glory of his praise.
2 Say to God, How awesome are your deeds! ♦︎
Because of your great strength
your enemies shall bow before you.
3 All the earth shall worship you, ♦︎
sing to you, sing praise to your name.
4 Come now and behold the works of God, ♦︎
how wonderful he is in his dealings with humankind.
5 He turned the sea into dry land;
the river they passed through on foot; ♦︎
there we rejoiced in him.
6 In his might he rules for ever;
his eyes keep watch over the nations; ♦︎
let no rebel rise up against him.
7 Bless our God, O you peoples; ♦︎
make the voice of his praise to be heard,
8 Who holds our souls in life ♦︎
and suffers not our feet to slip.
9 For you, O God, have proved us; ♦︎
you have tried us as silver is tried.
10 You brought us into the snare; ♦︎
you laid heavy burdens upon our backs.
11 You let enemies ride over our heads;
we went through fire and water; ♦︎
but you brought us out into a place of liberty.
12 I will come into your house with burnt offerings
and will pay you my vows, ♦︎
which my lips uttered
and my mouth promised when I was in trouble.
13 I will offer you fat burnt sacrifices
with the smoke of rams; ♦︎
I will sacrifice oxen and goats.
14 Come and listen, all you who fear God, ♦︎
and I will tell you what he has done for my soul.
15 I called out to him with my mouth ♦︎
and his praise was on my tongue.
16 If I had nursed evil in my heart, ♦︎
the Lord would not have heard me,
17 But in truth God has heard me; ♦︎
he has heeded the voice of my prayer.
18 Blessed be God, who has not rejected my prayer, ♦︎
nor withheld his loving mercy from me.
1 God be gracious to us and bless us ♦︎
and make his face to shine upon us,
2 That your way may be known upon earth, ♦︎
your saving power among all nations.
3 Let the peoples praise you, O God; ♦︎
let all the peoples praise you.
4 O let the nations rejoice and be glad, ♦︎
for you will judge the peoples righteously
and govern the nations upon earth.
5 Let the peoples praise you, O God; ♦︎
let all the peoples praise you.
6 Then shall the earth bring forth her increase, ♦︎
and God, our own God, will bless us.
7 God will bless us, ♦︎
and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
