5 Come and see the works of God;

^bThey went through the river on foot.
There we will rejoice in Him.

His eyes observe the nations;
Do not let the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah

And does not allow our feet to¹ be moved.

^bYou have refined us as silver is refined.

11 ^aYou brought us into the net;
You laid affliction on our backs.

12 ^aYou have caused men to ride over our heads;
^bWe went through fire and through water;
But You brought us out to¹ rich fulfillment.
