Psalm 66:8-12
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Praise our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9 Which [a]holdeth our souls in life, and suffereth not our feet to slip.
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us, thou hast tried us as silver is tried.
11 Thou hast brought us unto the [b]snare, and laid a strait chain upon our loins.
12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads: we went into fire and into water, but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
