Psalms 66:5
3 Say to God, “How awesome are Your deeds! So great is Your power that Your enemies cower before You.
4 All the earth bows down to You; they sing praise to You; they sing praise to Your name.” Selah
Come and see the works of God; how awesome are His deeds toward mankind.
6 He turned the sea into dry land; they passed through the waters on foot; there we rejoiced in Him.
7 He rules forever by His power; His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
