Psalm 66

¹Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:
²Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
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 children of men.
⁶He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
⁷He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.
⁸O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
⁹Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
¹⁰For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
¹¹Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
¹²Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
¹³I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
¹⁴Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath 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 hath done for 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:
¹⁹But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
²⁰Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.

⁶Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
⁷Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man’s heart shall melt:
⁸And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
⁹Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
¹⁰For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
¹¹And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
¹²I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
¹³Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
¹⁴And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own land.
¹⁵Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.

14And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads.
²And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
³And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
⁴These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
⁵And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
⁶And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
⁷Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
⁸And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
⁹And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
¹⁰The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
¹¹And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
¹²Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
¹³And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
