And of the far distant seas;

⁷Who by Thy strength settest fast the mountains,

Who art girded about with might;

⁸Who stillest the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves,

And the tumult of the peoples;

⁹So that they that dwell in the uttermost parts stand in awe of Thy signs;

Thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

 

¹⁰Thou hast remembered the earth, and watered her, greatly enriching her,

With the river of God that is full of water;

Thou preparest them corn, for so preparest Thou her.

¹¹Watering her ridges abundantly,

Settling down the furrows thereof,

Thou makest her soft with showers;

Thou blessest the growth thereof.

¹²Thou crownest the year with Thy goodness;

And Thy paths drop fatness.

¹³The pastures of the wilderness do drop;

And the hills are girded with joy.

¹⁴The meadows are clothed with flocks;

The valleys also are covered over with corn;

They shout for joy, yea, they sing.

66 For the Leader. A Song, a Psalm.

Shout unto God, all the earth;

²Sing praises unto the glory of His name;

Make His praise glorious.

³Say unto God: 'How tremendous is Thy work!

Through the greatness of Thy power shall Thine enemies dwindle away before Thee.

⁴All the earth shall worship Thee,

And shall sing praises unto Thee;

They shall sing praises to Thy name.' Selah

 

⁵Come, and see the works of God;

He is terrible in His doing toward the children of men.

⁶He turned the sea into dry land;

They went through the river on foot;

There let us rejoice in Him!

⁷Who ruleth by His might for ever;

His eyes keep watch upon the nations;

Let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

 

⁸Bless our God, ye peoples,

And make the voice of His praise to be heard;

⁹Who hath set our soul in life,

And suffered not our foot to be moved,

¹⁰For Thou, O God, hast tried us;

Thou hast refined us, as silver is refined.

¹¹Thou didst bring us into the hold;

Thou didst lay constraint upon our loins.

¹²Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads;

We went through fire and through water;

But Thou didst bring us out unto abundance.

 

¹³I will come into Thy house with burnt-offerings,

I will perform unto Thee my vows,

¹⁴Which my lips have uttered,

And my mouth hath spoken, when I was in distress.

¹⁵I will offer unto Thee burnt-offerings of fatlings,
