2Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious.2Sing praises about the majesty of his reputation! Give him the honor he deserves!
3Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.3Say to God: "How awesome are your deeds! Because of your great power your enemies cower in fear before you.
4All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing the praises of your name."4All the earth worships you and sings praises to you! They sing praises to your name!" (Selah)

6He turned the sea into dry land, they passed through the waters on foot-- come, let us rejoice in him.6He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the river on foot. Let us rejoice in him there!
7He rules forever by his power, his eyes watch the nations-- let not the rebellious rise up against him.7He rules by his power forever; he watches the nations. Stubborn rebels should not exalt themselves. (Selah)
8Praise our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard;8Praise our God, you nations! Loudly proclaim his praise!
9he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping.9He preserves our lives and does not allow our feet to slip.
10For you, God, tested us; you refined us like silver.10For you, O God, tested us; you purified us like refined silver.
11You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs.11You led us into a trap; you caused us to suffer.
12You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.12You allowed men to ride over our heads; we passed through fire and water, but you brought us out into a wide open place.
13I will come to your temple with burnt offerings and fulfill my vows to you--13I will enter your temple with burnt sacrifices; I will fulfill the vows I made to you,
14vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.14which my lips uttered and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.
15I will sacrifice fat animals to you and an offering of rams; I will offer bulls and goats.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)
16Come and hear, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.16Come! Listen, all you who are loyal to God! I will declare what he has done for me.
17I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.17I cried out to him for help and praised him with my tongue.
18If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;18If I had harbored sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
19but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer.19However, God heard; he listened to my prayer.
20Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!20God deserves praise, for he did not reject my prayer or abandon his love for me!
