1 Shout with joy to God, all you on earth;
2 sing to the glory of his name; proclaim his glorious praise.
3 Say to God, "How great are your deeds! How formidable your power that makes your enemies cower!
4 All the earth bows down to you, making music in praise of you, singing in honor of your name."
5 Come and see God's wonders, his deeds awesome for humans.
6 He has turned the sea into dry land, and the river was crossed on foot. Let us, therefore, rejoice in him.
7 He rules by his might forever, his eyes keeping watch on the peoples, his arm holding the rebels in check.
8 Praise our God, O nations, let the sound of his praise be heard,
9 for he has preserved us among the living and kept our feet from stumbling.
10 Why did you test us, O God; and refine us like silver?
11 You let us fall into the snare; you burdened us with disgrace.
12 You allowed a nobody to rule over us, and we have gone through fire and water, but you have brought us to safety at last.
13 I will bring offerings to your house in fulfillment of my vows -
14 Those I made when assailed with troubles.
15 I will offer holocausts of fatlings, sending up smoke of burning rams, and a sacrifice of goats and bulls.
16 All you who fear God, come and listen; let me tell you what he has done.
17 I cried aloud to him, extolling him with my tongue.
18 If I had nurtured wickedness in my heart, then he would not have heard.
19 But God has listened; he gave heed to my prayer.
20 May God be blessed! He has not rejected my prayer; nor withheld his love from me.
