< 詩篇 66 >
For the Chief Musician. A Song, a Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God, all the earth:
2 歌頌他名的榮耀! 用讚美的言語將他的榮耀發明!
Sing forth the glory of his name: make his praise glorious.
3 當對上帝說:你的作為何等可畏! 因你的大能,仇敵要投降你。
Say unto God, How terrible are thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
4 全地要敬拜你,歌頌你, 要歌頌你的名。 (細拉)
All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. (Selah)
5 你們來看上帝所行的, 他向世人所做之事是可畏的。
Come, and see the works of God; [he is] terrible in his doing toward the children of men.
6 他將海變成乾地,眾民步行過河; 我們在那裏因他歡喜。
He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7 他用權能治理萬民,直到永遠。 他的眼睛鑒察列邦; 悖逆的人不可自高。 (細拉)
He ruleth by his might for ever; his eyes observe the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
8 萬民哪,你們當稱頌我們的上帝, 使人得聽讚美他的聲音。
O bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10 上帝啊,你曾試驗我們, 熬煉我們,如熬煉銀子一樣。
For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
Thou broughtest us into the net; thou layedst a sore burden upon our loins.
12 你使人坐車軋我們的頭; 我們經過水火, 你卻使我們到豐富之地。
Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
I will come into thy house with burnt offerings, I will pay thee my vows,
Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in distress.
15 我要把肥牛作燔祭, 將公羊的香祭獻給你, 又把公牛和山羊獻上。 (細拉)
I will offer unto thee burnt offerings of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)
16 凡敬畏上帝的人,你們都來聽! 我要述說他為我所行的事。
Come, and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear:
19 但上帝實在聽見了; 他側耳聽了我禱告的聲音。
But verily God hath heard; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 上帝是應當稱頌的! 他並沒有推卻我的禱告, 也沒有叫他的慈愛離開我。
Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
