Psalms 66
1 For the music director. A song. A psalm. Everyone on earth, shout for joy to God!
To the victorie, the song of salm.
2 Sing about his marvelous reputation; praise him for his goodness!
Al the erthe, make ye ioie hertli to God, seie ye salm to his name; yyue ye glorie to his heriyng.
3 Tell God, “What you do is awesome! Your enemies are forced to bow before you because of your power.
Seie ye to God, Lord, thi werkis ben dredeful; in the multitude of thi vertu thin enemyes schulen lie to thee.
4 Everyone on earth worships you, singing your praises—singing praises because of who you are.” (Selah)
God, al the erthe worschipe thee, and synge to thee; seie it salm to thi name.
5 Come and see what God has done! What he does for people is truly awesome!
Come ye and se ye the werkis of God; ferdful in counseils on the sones of men.
6 He turned the Red Sea into dry land, and his people walked across through the waters. We celebrated there because of what he did.
Which turnede the see in to drie lond; in the flood thei schulen passe with foot, there we schulen be glad in hym.
7 He rules forever through his power. He keeps an eye on the nations, watching to make sure no rebels rise up in opposition. (Selah)
Which is Lord in his vertu withouten ende, hise iyen biholden on folkis; thei that maken scharp be not enhaunsid in hem silf.
8 Let all people everywhere bless our God, and loudly sing praises to him.
Ye hethen men, blesse oure God; and make ye herd the vois of his preising.
9 He has kept us alive, and he has not let us fall.
That hath set my soule to lijf, and yaf not my feet in to stiryng.
10 God, you have tested us, refining us like silver.
For thou, God, hast preued vs; thou hast examyned vs bi fier, as siluer is examyned.
11 You caught us in your net; you placed heavy burdens on our backs.
Thou leddist vs in to a snare, thou puttidist tribulaciouns in oure bak;
12 You let people ride roughshod over us; we suffered through fire and flooding, but you brought us to a safe place.
thou settidist men on oure heedis. We passiden bi fier and water; and thou leddist vs out in to refreschyng.
13 I will come to your Temple with burnt offerings; I will fulfill my promises to you,
I schal entre in to thin hous in brent sacrifices; Y schal yelde to thee my vowis,
14 the promises I made when I was in trouble.
which my lippis spaken distinctly. And my mouth spake in my tribulacioun;
15 I will sacrifice burnt offerings to you of fattened livestock—the smoke of the sacrifice of rams, offerings of bulls and goats. (Selah)
Y shal offre to thee brent sacrificis ful of merowy, with the brennyng of rammes; Y schal offre to thee oxis with buckis of geet.
16 Come and listen, everyone who honors God, and I will tell you all he has done for me.
Alle ye that dreden God, come and here, and Y schal telle; hou grete thingis he hath do to my soule.
17 I called out to him, and praised him with my voice.
I criede to hym with my mouth; and Y ioyede fulli vndir my tunge.
18 If my thinking had been sinful, the Lord would not have listened to me.
If Y bihelde wickidnesse in myn herte; the Lord schal not here.
19 But God did hear me! He listened to what I had to say in my prayer!
Therfor God herde; and perseyuede the vois of my bisechyng.
20 Praise God, who did not disregard my prayer or take his trustworthy love from me.
Blessid be God; that remeued not my preyer, and `took not awei his merci fro me.
