| [1]For the Leader. A Song, a Psalm. Shout unto God, all the earth; |
[1]Rejoice in God, all ye inhabitants of the earth. |
| [2]Sing praises unto the glory of His name; make His praise glorious. |
[2]Sing forth the glory of his name: make his praise glorious. |
| [3]Say unto God: 'How tremendous is Thy work! Through the greatness of Thy power shall Thine enemies dwindle away before Thee. |
[3]Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies be in subjection unto thee. |
| [4]All the earth shall worship Thee, and shall sing praises unto Thee; they shall sing praises to Thy name.' Selah |
[4]All the world shall worship thee, and sing unto thee, even sing of thy name. Selah. |
| [5]Come, and see the works of God; He is terrible in His doing toward the children of men. |
[5]Come and behold the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the sons of men. |
| [6]He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot; there let us rejoice in Him! |
[6]He hath turned the sea into dry land: they pass through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him. |
| [7]Who ruleth by His might for ever; His eyes keep watch upon the nations; let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah |
[7]He ruleth the world with his power: his eyes behold the nations: the rebellious shall not exalt themselves. Selah. |
| [8]Bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of His praise to be heard; |
[8]Praise our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard. |
| [9]Who hath set our soul in life, and suffered not our foot to be moved, |
[9]Which holdeth our souls in life, and suffereth not our feet to slip. |
| [10]For Thou, O God, hast tried us; Thou hast refined us, as silver is refined. |
[10]For thou, O God, hast proved us, thou hast tried us as silver is tried. |
| [11]Thou didst bring us into the hold; Thou didst lay constraint upon our loins. |
[11]Thou hast brought us into the snare, and laid a strait chain upon our loins. |
| [12]Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but Thou didst bring us out unto abundance. |
[12]Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads: we went into fire and into water, but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place. |
| [13]I will come into Thy house with burnt-offerings, I will perform unto Thee my vows, |
[13]I will go into thine house with burnt offerings, and will pay thee my vows, |
| [14]Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in distress. |
[14]Which my lips have promised, and my mouth hath spoken in mine affliction. |
| [15]I will offer unto Thee burnt-offerings of fatlings, with the sweet smoke of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah |
[15]I will offer unto thee burnt offerings of fat rams with incense: I will prepare bullocks and goats. Selah. |
| [16]Come, and hearken, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what He hath done for my soul. |
[16]Come and hearken, all ye that fear God, and I will tell you what he hath done to my soul. |
| [17]I cried unto Him with my mouth, and He was extolled with my tongue. |
[17]I called unto him with my mouth, and he was exalted with my tongue. |
| [18]If I ha regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear; |
[18]If I regard wickedness in mine heart, the Lord will not hear me. |
| [19]But verily God hath heard; He hath attended to the voice of my prayer. |
[19]But God, hath heard me, and considered the voice of my prayer. |
| [20]Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me. |
[20]Praised be God, which hath not put back my praise, nor his mercy from me. |
