Be joyful in God, all you lands; sing the glory of his Name; sing the glory of his praise.
7. Bless our God, you peoples; make the voice of his praise to be heard;
8. Who holds our souls in life, and will not allow our feet to slip.
Be joyful in God, all you lands; sing the glory of his Name; sing the glory of his praise.
9. For you, O God, have proved us; you have tried us just as silver is tried.
10. You brought us into the snare; you laid heavy burdens upon our backs.
11. You let enemies ride over our heads; we went through fire and water; but you brought us out into a place of refreshment.
Be joyful in God, all you lands; sing the glory of his Name; sing the glory of his praise.
12. I will enter your house with burnt offerings and will pay you my vows, which I promised with my lips and spoke with my mouth when I was in trouble.
13. I will offer you sacrifices of fat beasts with the smoke of rams; I will give you oxen and goats.
14. Come and listen, all you who fear God, and I will tell you what he has done for me.
Be joyful in God, all you lands; sing the glory of his Name; sing the glory of his praise.
15. I called out to him with my mouth, and his praise was on my tongue.
16. If I had found evil in my heart, the Lord would not have heard me.
17. But in truth God has heard me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
18. Blessed be God, who has not rejected my prayer, nor withheld his love from me.
Be joyful in God, all you lands; sing the glory of his Name; sing the glory of his praise.
