Psalm 66:5 Context

◄ Psalm 66:5 ►

Come and see the works of God; how awesome are His deeds toward mankind.

Context

5Come and see the works of God,
Who is awesome in His deeds toward the sons of men.

6He turned the sea into dry land;
They passed through the river on foot;
There let us rejoice in Him!

7He rules by His might forever;
His eyes keep watch on the nations;
Let not the rebellious exalt themselves.

Selah.

8Bless our God, O peoples,
And sound His praise abroad,

9Who keeps us in life
And does not allow our feet to slip.

10For You have tried us, O God;
You have refined us as silver is refined.

11You brought us into the net;
You laid an oppressive burden upon our loins.

12You made men ride over our heads;
We went through fire and through water,
Yet You brought us out into a place of abundance.

13I shall come into Your house with burnt offerings;
I shall pay You my vows,

14Which my lips uttered
And my mouth spoke when I was in distress.

15I shall offer to You burnt offerings of fat beasts,
With the smoke of rams;
I shall make an offering of bulls with male goats.

Selah.

16Come and hear, all who fear God,
And I will tell of what He has done for my soul.

17I cried to Him with my mouth,
And He was extolled with my tongue.

18If I regard wickedness in my heart,
The Lord will not hear;

19But certainly God has heard;
He has given heed to the voice of my prayer.

20Blessed be God,
Who has not turned away my prayer
Nor His lovingkindness from me.
