Psalms 66:8-12

⁸O bless our God, ye nations. And make the voice of his praise to be heard!

⁹It is he who preserveth our lives, And suffereth not our feet to stumble.

¹⁰Thou hast, indeed, proved us, O God! Thou hast tried us as silver is tried.

¹¹Thou broughtest us into a snare, And didst lay a heavy burden upon our backs;

¹²Thou didst cause men to ride upon our heads, And we have gone through fire and water: But thou hast brought us to a place of abundance.
