Read the chapter

1Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth! ✦ 2Sing out the honor of His name; Make His praise glorious. ✦ 3Say to God, “How awesome are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies shall submit themselves to You. ✦ 4All the earth shall worship You And sing praises to You; They shall sing praises to Your name.” Selah ✦ 5Come and see the works of God; He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men. ✦ 6He turned the sea into dry land; They went through the river on foot. There we will rejoice in Him. ✦ 7He rules by His power forever; His eyes observe the nations; Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah ✦ 8Oh, bless our God, you peoples! And make the voice of His praise to be heard, ✦ 9Who keeps our soul among the living, And does not allow our feet to be moved. ✦ 10For You, O God, have tested us; You have refined us as silver is refined. ✦ 11You brought us into the net; You laid affliction on our backs. ✦ 12You have caused men to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But You brought us out to rich fulfillment. ✦ 13I will go into Your house with burnt offerings; I will pay You my vows, ✦ 14Which my lips have uttered And my mouth has spoken when I was in trouble. ✦ 15I will offer You burnt sacrifices of fat animals, With the sweet aroma of rams; I will offer bulls with goats. Selah ✦ 16Come and hear, all you who fear God, And I will declare what He has done for my soul. ✦ 17I cried to Him with my mouth, And He was extolled with my tongue. ✦ 18If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear. ✦ 19But certainly God has heard me; He has attended to the voice of my prayer. ✦ 20Blessed be God, Who has not turned away my prayer, Nor His mercy 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.
