make his praise glorious.
3 — Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works!
through the greatness of thy power
shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.

and shall sing unto thee;
they shall sing to thy name. Selah.

he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.

there did we rejoice in him.

his eyes behold the nations:
let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.
8 — O bless our God, ye people,
and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
9 — Which holdeth our soul in life,
and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10 — For thou, O God, hast proved us:
thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
11 — Thou broughtest us into the net;
thou laidst affliction upon our loins.

we went through fire and through water:
but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
13 — I will go into thy house with burnt offerings:
I will pay thee my vows,
14 — Which my lips have uttered,
and my mouth hath spoken,
when I was in trouble.

with the incense of rams;
I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.
16 — Come and hear, all ye that fear God,
and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17 — I cried unto him with my mouth,
and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 — If I regard iniquity in my heart,
the Lord will not hear me:
19 — But verily God hath heard me;
he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 — Blessed be God,
which hath not turned away my prayer,
nor his mercy from me.
