Psalms

To the choirmaster. A Song. A Psalm.

Corporate Act of Thanksgiving.  Psalm 66(v65)

1Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;
2sing the glory of his name;
give to him glorious praise!
3Say to God, "How terrible are your deeds!
So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.
4All the earth worships you;
they sing praises to you,
sing praises to your name." Selah

5Come and see what God has done:
he is terrible in his deeds among men.
6He turned the sea into dry land;
men passed through the river on foot.
There did we rejoice in him,
7who rules by his might for ever,
whose eyes keep watch on the nations -
let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

8Bless our God, O peoples,
let the sound of his praise be heard,
9who has kept us among the living,
and has not let our feet slip.
10For you have tested us, O God;
you have tried us as silver is tried.
11You brought us into the net;
you laid affliction on our loins;
12you let men ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through water;
yet you have brought us forth to a spacious place.

13I will come into your house with burnt offerings;
I will pay you my vows,
14that which my lips uttered
and my mouth promised when I was in trouble.
15I will offer to you burnt offerings of fatlings,
with the smoke of the sacrifice of rams;
I will make an offering of bulls and goats. Selah

16Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and I will tell what he has done for me.
17I cried aloud to him,
and he was extolled with my tongue.
18If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,
Yahweh would not have listened.
19But truly God has listened;
he has given heed to the voice of my prayer.

20Blessed be God,
because he has not rejected my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me!

Notes: This webpage enables you to select-a-version from the Bible versions held on the katapi bible database.
This page displays the katapi New Standard Bible as flowing text.
The katapi New Standard Bible is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.
