- 1Everything on earth, shout with joy to God!
- 2Praise his glorious name! Honor him with songs of praise!
- 3Tell God, “Your works are wonderful! Your great power makes your enemies bow down in fear before you.
- 4Let the whole world worship you. Let everyone sing praises to your name.” Selah
- 5Look at what God has done! These things amaze us.
- 6He changed the sea to dry land,[1] and his people went across the water[2] on foot. So let’s celebrate because of what he has done!
- 7He rules the world with his great power. He watches people everywhere. No one can rebel against him. Selah
- 8People, praise our God. Sing loud songs of praise to him.
- 9He continues to give us life, and he keeps us from falling.
- 10God, you have tested us, as people test silver with fire.
- 11You let us be trapped. You put heavy burdens on us.
- 12You let our enemies run over us. We went through fire and water, but you brought us to a safe place.
- 13[13-14] So I bring sacrifices to your Temple. When I was in trouble, I asked for help and made promises to you. Now I am giving you what I promised.
- 15I bring my best sheep as burnt offerings. I offer the smoke from them up to you. I give you sacrifices of bulls and goats. Selah
- 16All you people who worship God, come and I will tell you what he has done for me.
