Psalms 66:7-16

⁷He rules forever through his power. He keeps an eye on the nations, watching to make sure no rebels rise up in opposition. Selah.

⁸Let all people everywhere bless our God, and loudly sing praises to him.

⁹He has kept us alive, and he has not let us fall.

¹⁰God, you have tested us, refining us like silver.

¹¹You caught us in your net; you placed heavy burdens on our backs.

¹²You let people ride roughshod over us; we suffered through fire and flooding, but you brought us to a safe place.

¹³I will come to your Temple with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my promises to you,

¹⁴the promises I made when I was in trouble.

¹⁵I will sacrifice burnt offerings to you of fattened livestock—the smoke of the sacrifice of rams, offerings of bulls and goats. Selah.

¹⁶Come and listen, everyone who honors God, and I will tell you all he has done for me.
