Psalms:66-69
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Make a joyful noise unto God ,
all ye lands :
*
Sing forth the honour of his name :
make his praise glorious .
*
Say unto God ,
How terrible art thou in thy works !
through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee .
*
All the earth shall worship thee ,
and shall sing unto thee ;
they shall sing to thy name .
Selah .
*
Come and see the works of God :
he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men .
*
He turned the sea into dry land :
they went through the flood on foot :
there did we rejoice in him .
*
He ruleth by his power for ever ;
his eyes behold the nations :
let not the rebellious exalt themselves .
Selah .
*
O bless our God ,
ye people ,
and make the voice of his praise to be heard :
*
Which holdeth our soul in life ,
and suffereth not our feet to be moved .
*
For thou ,
O God ,
hast proved us :
thou hast tried us ,
as silver is tried .
*
Thou broughtest us into the net ;
thou laidst affliction upon our loins .
*
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 .
*
I will go into thy house with burnt offerings :
I will pay thee my vows ,
*
Which my lips have uttered ,
and my mouth hath spoken ,
when I was in trouble .
*
I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings ,
with the incense of rams ;
I will offer bullocks with goats .
Selah .
*
Come and hear ,
all ye that fear God ,
and I will declare what he hath done for my soul .
*
I cried unto him with my mouth ,
and he was extolled with my tongue .
*
If I regard iniquity in my heart ,
the Lord will not hear me :
*
But verily God hath heard me ;
he hath attended to the voice of my prayer .
*
Blessed be God ,
which hath not turned away my prayer ,
nor his mercy from me .
*
God be merciful unto us ,
and bless us ;
and cause his face to shine upon us ;
Selah .
*
That thy way may be known upon earth ,
thy saving health among all nations .
*
Let the people praise thee ,
O God ;
let all the people praise thee .
*
O let the nations be glad and sing for joy :
for thou shalt judge the people righteously ,
and govern the nations upon earth .
Selah .
*
Let the people praise thee ,
O God ;
let all the people praise thee .
*
Then shall the earth yield her increase ;
and God ,
even our own God ,
shall bless us .
*
God shall bless us ;
and all the ends of the earth shall fear him .
*
Let God arise ,
let his enemies be scattered :
let them also that hate him flee before him .
*
As smoke is driven away ,
so drive them away :
as wax melteth before the fire ,
so let the wicked perish at the presence of God .
*
But let the righteous be glad ;
let them rejoice before God :
yea ,
let them exceedingly rejoice .
*
Sing unto God ,
sing praises to his name :
extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH ,
and rejoice before him .
*
A father of the fatherless ,
and a judge of the widows ,
is God in his holy habitation .
*
God setteth the solitary in families :
he bringeth out those which are bound with chains :
but the rebellious dwell in a dry land .
*
O God ,
when thou wentest forth before thy people ,
when thou didst march through the wilderness ;
Selah :
*
The earth shook ,
the heavens also dropped at the presence of God :
even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God ,
the God of Israel .
*
Thou ,
O God ,
didst send a plentiful rain ,
whereby thou didst confirm thine inheritance ,
when it was weary .
*
Thy congregation hath dwelt therein :
thou ,
O God ,
hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor .
*
The Lord gave the word :
great was the company of those that published it .
*
Kings of armies did flee apace :
and she that tarried at home divided the spoil .
*
Though ye have lien among the pots ,
yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver ,
and her feathers with yellow gold .
*
When the Almighty scattered kings in it ,
it was white as snow in Salmon .
*
The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan ;
an high hill as the hill of Bashan .
*
Why leap ye ,
ye high hills ?
this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in ;
yea ,
the LORD will dwell in it for ever .
*
The chariots of God are twenty thousand ,
even thousands of angels :
the Lord is among them ,
as in Sinai ,
in the holy place .
*
Thou hast ascended on high ,
thou hast led captivity captive :
thou hast received gifts for men ;
yea ,
for the rebellious also ,
that the LORD God might dwell among them .
*
Blessed be the Lord ,
who daily loadeth us with benefits ,
even the God of our salvation .
Selah .
*
He that is our God is the God of salvation ;
and unto GOD the Lord belong the issues from death .
*
But God shall wound the head of his enemies ,
and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses .
*
The Lord said ,
I will bring again from Bashan ,
I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea :
*
That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies ,
and the tongue of thy dogs in the same .
*
They have seen thy goings ,
O God ;
even the goings of my God ,
my King ,
in the sanctuary .
*
The singers went before ,
the players on instruments followed after ;
among them were the damsels playing with timbrels .
*
Bless ye God in the congregations ,
even the Lord ,
from the fountain of Israel .
*
There is little Benjamin with their ruler ,
the princes of Judah and their council ,
the princes of Zebulun ,
and the princes of Naphtali .
*
Thy God hath commanded thy strength :
strengthen ,
O God ,
that which thou hast wrought for us .
*
Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee .
*
Rebuke the company of spearmen ,
the multitude of the bulls ,
with the calves of the people ,
till every one submit himself with pieces of silver :
scatter thou the people that delight in war .
*
Princes shall come out of Egypt ;
Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God .
*
Sing unto God ,
ye kingdoms of the earth ;
O sing praises unto the Lord ;
Selah :
*
To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens ,
which were of old ;
lo ,
he doth send out his voice ,
and that a mighty voice .
*
Ascribe ye strength unto God :
his excellency is over Israel ,
and his strength is in the clouds .
*
O God ,
thou art terrible out of thy holy places :
the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people .
Blessed be God .
*
Save me ,
O God ;
for the waters are come in unto my soul .
*
I sink in deep mire ,
where there is no standing :
I am come into deep waters ,
where the floods overflow me .
*
I am weary of my crying :
my throat is dried :
mine eyes fail while I wait for my God .
*
They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of mine head :
they that would destroy me ,
being mine enemies wrongfully ,
are mighty :
then I restored that which I took not away .
*
O God ,
thou knowest my foolishness ;
and my sins are not hid from thee .
*
Let not them that wait on thee ,
O Lord GOD of hosts ,
be ashamed for my sake :
let not those that seek thee be confounded for my sake ,
O God of Israel .
*
Because for thy sake I have borne reproach ;
shame hath covered my face .
*
I am become a stranger unto my brethren ,
and an alien unto my mother '
s children .
*
For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up ;
and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me .
*
When I wept ,
and chastened my soul with fasting ,
that was to my reproach .
*
I made sackcloth also my garment ;
and I became a proverb to them .
*
They that sit in the gate speak against me ;
and I was the song of the drunkards .
*
But as for me ,
my prayer is unto thee ,
O LORD ,
in an acceptable time :
O God ,
in the multitude of thy mercy hear me ,
in the truth of thy salvation .
*
Deliver me out of the mire ,
and let me not sink :
let me be delivered from them that hate me ,
and out of the deep waters .
*
Let not the waterflood overflow me ,
neither let the deep swallow me up ,
and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me .
*
Hear me ,
O LORD ;
for thy lovingkindness is good :
turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies .
*
And hide not thy face from thy servant ;
for I am in trouble :
hear me speedily .
*
Draw nigh unto my soul ,
and redeem it :
deliver me because of mine enemies .
*
Thou hast known my reproach ,
and my shame ,
and my dishonour :
mine adversaries are all before thee .
*
Reproach hath broken my heart ;
and I am full of heaviness :
and I looked for some to take pity ,
but there was none ;
and for comforters ,
but I found none .
*
They gave me also gall for my meat ;
and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink .
*
Let their table become a snare before them :
and that which should have been for their welfare ,
let it become a trap .
*
Let their eyes be darkened ,
that they see not ;
and make their loins continually to shake .
*
Pour out thine indignation upon them ,
and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them .
*
Let their habitation be desolate ;
and let none dwell in their tents .
*
For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten ;
and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded .
*
Add iniquity unto their iniquity :
and let them not come into thy righteousness .
*
Let them be blotted out of the book of the living ,
and not be written with the righteous .
*
But I am poor and sorrowful :
let thy salvation ,
O God ,
set me up on high .
*
I will praise the name of God with a song ,
and will magnify him with thanksgiving .
*
This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs .
*
The humble shall see this ,
and be glad :
and your heart shall live that seek God .
*
For the LORD heareth the poor ,
and despiseth not his prisoners .
*
Let the heaven and earth praise him ,
the seas ,
and every thing that moveth therein .
*
For God will save Zion ,
and will build the cities of Judah :
that they may dwell there ,
and have it in possession .
*
The seed also of his servants shall inherit it :
and they that love his name shall dwell therein .
*
Make haste ,
O God ,
to deliver me ;
make haste to help me ,
O LORD .
