So great is your power that your enemies cringe   before you.  4 All the earth bows down   to you; they sing praise   to you, they sing the praises of your name.”   5 Come and see what God has done, his awesome deeds   for mankind!  6 He turned the sea into dry land,   they passed through   the waters on foot— come, let us rejoice   in him.  7 He rules forever   by his power, his eyes watch   the nations— let not the rebellious   rise up against him.  8 Praise   our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard;  9 he has preserved our lives   and kept our feet from slipping.    10 For you, God, tested   us; you refined us like silver.    11 You brought us into prison   and laid burdens   on our backs.  12 You let people ride over our heads;   we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.    13 I will come to your temple with burnt offerings   and fulfill my vows   to you—  14 vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.  15 I will sacrifice fat animals to you and an offering of rams; I will offer bulls and goats.    16 Come and hear,   all you who fear God; let me tell   you what he has done for me.  17 I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.  18 If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;    19 but God has surely listened and has heard   my prayer.  20 Praise be to God, who has not rejected   my prayer or withheld his love from me!

From Wikipedia: 

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
