Psa 66:3Say to God: "How awesome are your deeds! Because of your great power your enemies cower in fear before you.
Psa 66:4All the earth worships you and sings praises to you! They sing praises to your name!" (Selah)

Psa 66:6He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot. Let us rejoice in him there!

Psa 66:9He preserves our lives and does not allow our feet to slip.
Psa 66:10For you, O God, tested us; you purified us like refined silver.
Psa 66:11You led us into a trap; you caused us to suffer.
Psa 66:12You allowed men to ride over our heads; we passed through fire and water, but you brought us out into a wide open place.
Psa 66:13I will enter your temple with burnt sacrifices; I will fulfill the vows I made to you,
Psa 66:14which my lips uttered and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.
Psa 66:15I will offer up to you fattened animals as burnt sacrifices, along with the smell of sacrificial rams. I will offer cattle and goats. (Selah)
Psa 66:16Come! Listen, all you who are loyal to God! I will declare what he has done for me.
Psa 66:17I cried out to him for help and praised him with my tongue.
Psa 66:18If I had harbored sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
Psa 66:19However, God heard; he listened to my prayer.
Psa 66:20God deserves praise, for he did not reject my prayer or abandon his love for me!
