Psalm 66:8 Context

◄ Psalm 66:8 ►

Bless our God, O peoples; let the sound of His praise be heard.

Context

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.
