Read the chapter

1Shout joyfully to God, all the earth; ✦ 2Sing the glory of His name; Make His praise glorious. ✦ 3Say to God, “How awesome are Your works! Because of the greatness of Your power Your enemies will pretend to obey You. ✦ 4“All the earth will worship You, And will sing praises to You; They will sing praises to Your name.” Selah ✦ 5¶Come and see the works of God, Who is awesome in His deeds toward the sons of mankind. ✦ 6He turned the sea into dry land; They passed through the river on foot; Let’s rejoice there, in Him! ✦ 7He rules by His might forever; His eyes keep watch on the nations; The rebellious shall not exalt themselves! Selah ✦ 8¶Bless our God, you peoples, And sound His praise abroad, ✦ 9Who keeps us in life, And does not allow our feet to slip. ✦ 10For You have put us to the test, God; You have refined us as silver is refined. ✦ 11You brought us into the net; You laid an oppressive burden upon us. ✦ 12You made men ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water. Yet You brought us out into a place of abundance. ✦ 13I shall come into Your house with burnt offerings; I shall pay You my vows, ✦ 14Which my lips uttered And my mouth spoke when I was in distress. ✦ 15I shall offer to You burnt offerings of fat animals, With the smoke of rams; I shall make an offering of bulls with male goats. Selah ✦ 16¶Come and hear, all who fear God, And I will tell of what He has done for my soul. ✦ 17I cried to Him with my mouth, And He was exalted with my tongue. ✦ 18If I regard wickedness in my heart, The Lord will not hear; ✦ 19But God has heard; He has given attention to the sound of my prayer. ✦ 20Blessed be God, Who has not turned away my prayer Nor His favor from me. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.

How Psalms 66 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
