2 Sing about the glory of his name! Tell the world how glorious he is. sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise! Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious.
3 Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! Your enemies cringe before your mighty power. Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you. Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.
4 Everything on earth will worship you; they will sing your praises, shouting your name in glorious songs.” Interlude All the earth worships you and sings praises to you; they sing praises to your name.” Selah All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing the praises of your name.”
5 Come and see what our God has done, what awesome miracles he performs for people! Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man. Come and see what God has done, his awesome deeds for mankind!
6 He made a dry path through the Red Sea, and his people went across on foot. There we rejoiced in him. He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot. There did we rejoice in him, He turned the sea into dry land, they passed through the waters on foot— come, let us rejoice in him.
7 For by his great power he rules forever. He watches every movement of the nations; let no rebel rise in defiance. Interlude who rules by his might forever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations— let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah He rules forever by his power, his eyes watch the nations— let not the rebellious rise up against him.
8 Let the whole world bless our God and loudly sing his praises. Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of his praise be heard, Praise our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard;
9 Our lives are in his hands, and he keeps our feet from stumbling. who has kept our soul among the living and has not let our feet slip. he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping.
10 You have tested us, O God; you have purified us like silver. For you, O God, have tested us; you have tried us as silver is tried. For you, God, tested us; you refined us like silver.
11 You captured us in your net and laid the burden of slavery on our backs. You brought us into the net; you laid a crushing burden on our backs; You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs.
12 Then you put a leader over us. We went through fire and flood, but you brought us to a place of great abundance. you let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance. You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.
13 Now I come to your Temple with burnt offerings to fulfill the vows I made to you— I will come into your house with burnt offerings; I will perform my vows to you, I will come to your temple with burnt offerings and fulfill my vows to you—
14 yes, the sacred vows that I made when I was in deep trouble. that which my lips uttered and my mouth promised when I was in trouble. vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.
15 That is why I am sacrificing burnt offerings to you— the best of my rams as a pleasing aroma, and a sacrifice of bulls and male goats. Interlude I will offer to you burnt offerings of fattened animals, with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams; I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah I will sacrifice fat animals to you and an offering of rams; I will offer bulls and goats.
16 Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will tell you what he did for me. Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for my soul. Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.
17 For I cried out to him for help, praising him as I spoke. I cried to him with my mouth, and high praise was on my tongue. I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.
18 If I had not confessed the sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened. If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened. If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;
19 But God did listen! He paid attention to my prayer. But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer. but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer.
20 Praise God, who did not ignore my prayer or withdraw his unfailing love from me. Blessed be God, because he has not rejected my prayer or removed his steadfast love from me! Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!
