| [1]To the chief Musician, A Song or Psalm. Make a joyful noise to God, all ye lands: |
[1]Shout unto God, all the earth. |
| [2]Sing forth the honor of his name: make his praise glorious. |
[2]O sing praises to his name; give glory to his praise. |
| [3]Say to God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thy enemies submit themselves to thee. |
[3]Say unto God, How awful are thy works! through the greatness of thy power thine enemies shall lie to thee. |
| [4]All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing to thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah. |
[4]Let all the earth worship thee, and sing to thee; let them sing to thy name. Pause. |
| [5]Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing towards the children of men. |
[5]Come and behold the works of God; he is terrible in his counsels beyond the children of men. |
| [6]He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there we rejoiced in him. |
[6]Who turns the sea into dry land; they shall go through the river on foot; there shall we rejoice in him, |
| [7]He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah. |
[7]who by his power is Lord over the age, his eyes look upon the nations; let not them that provoke him be exalted in themselves. Pause. |
| [8]O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: |
[8]Bless our God, ye Gentiles, and make the voice of his praise to be heard; |
| [9]Who holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved. |
[9]who quickens my soul in life, and does not suffer my feet to be moved. |
| [10]For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried. |
[10]For thou, O God, has proved us; thou hast tried us with fire as silver is tried. |
| [11]Thou hast brought us into the net; thou hast laid affliction upon our loins. |
[11]Thou broughtest us into the snare; thou laidest afflictions on our back. |
| [12]Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place. |
[12]Thou didst mount men upon our heads; we went through the fire and water; but thou broughtest us out into a place of refreshment. |
| [13]I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings: I will pay thee my vows, |
[13]I will go into thine house with whole-burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows, |
| [14]Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble. |
[14]which my lips framed, and my mouth uttered in my affliction. |
| [15]I will offer to thee burnt-sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah. |
[15]I will offer to thee whole-burnt-sacrifices full of marrow, with incense and rams; I will sacrifice to thee oxen with goats. Pause. |
| [16]Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul. |
[16]Come, hear, and I will tell, all ye that fear God, how great things he has done for my soul. |
| [17]I cried to him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue. |
[17]I cried to him with my mouth, and exalted him with my tongue. |
| [18]If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me: |
[18]If I have regarded iniquity in my heart, let not the Lord hearken to me. |
| [19]But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer. |
[19]Therefore God has hearkened to me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer. |
| [20]Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me. |
[20]Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me. |
