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.

¹³Your words have been stout against me, saith the Lord. Yet ye say, What have we spoken so much against thee?
¹⁴Ye have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the Lord of hosts?
¹⁵And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered.
¹⁶Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.
¹⁷And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
¹⁸Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

4

For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
²But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
³And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts.

¹⁷And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
¹⁸And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
¹⁹Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
²⁰Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
²¹In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
²²All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
²³And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:
²⁴For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
