Praise for God's Goodness to Israel

Psalm 66: 1-12

1Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;

2sing the glory of God's name; give to God glorious praise.

3Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! Because of your great power, your enemies cringe before you.

4All the earth worships you; they sing praises to you, sing praises to your name.” Selah

5Come and see what God has done: God is awesome in God's deeds among mortals.

6God turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot. There we rejoiced in God,

7who rules by God's might forever, whose eyes keep watch on the nations— let the rebellious not exalt themselves. Selah

8Bless our God, O peoples, let the sound of God's praise be heard,

9who has kept us among the living, and has not let our feet slip.

10For you, O God, have tested us; you have tried us as silver is tried.

11You brought us into the net; you laid burdens on our backs;

12you let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.
