2Sing forth the glory of his name: Make his praise glorious.

2Praise ye the honour of His name, Make ye honourable His praise.

3 Say untoGod, How terrible are thy works! because of the greatness of thy strength, thine enemies come cringing unto thee.

3Say unto God, How terrible are thy works! Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.

4 All the earth shall worship thee, and sing psalms unto thee: they shall sing forth thy name. Selah.

6He turned the sea into dry land; They went through the river on foot: There did we rejoice in him.

6He hath turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass over on foot, There do we rejoice in Him.

7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes observe the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

7He ruleth by his might for ever; His eyes observe the nations: Let not the rebellious exalt themselves. [Selah

9 Who hath set our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

9Who holdeth our soul in life, And suffereth not our feet to be moved.

9Who hath placed our soul in life, And suffered not our feet to be moved.

10 For thou, OGod, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

11 Thou broughtest us into a net, thou didst lay a heavy burden upon our loins;

11Thou broughtest us into the net; Thou layedst a sore burden upon our loins.

12 Thou didst cause men to ride over our head; we went through fire and through water: but thou hast brought us out into abundance.

12Thou didst cause men to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.

12Thou hast caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, And Thou bringest us out to a watered place.

13 I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will perform my vows to thee,

13I will come 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.

14Which my lips uttered, And my mouth spake, when I was in distress.

14For opened were my lips, And my mouth spake in my distress:

15 I will offer up unto thee burnt-offerings of fatted beasts, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.

15I will offer unto thee burnt-offerings of fatlings, With the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. [Selah

15`Burnt-offerings of fatlings I offer to Thee, With perfume of rams, I prepare a bullock with he-goats.' Selah.

19But verily God hath heard; He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
