Psalms 66

1 For the Leader. A Song, a Psalm. Shout unto God, all the earth;

一篇詩歌，交與伶長。 全地都當向上帝歡呼！

2 Sing praises unto the glory of His name; make His praise glorious.

歌頌他名的榮耀！ 用讚美的言語將他的榮耀發明！

3 Say unto God: 'How tremendous is Thy work! Through the greatness of Thy power shall Thine enemies dwindle away before Thee.

當對上帝說：你的作為何等可畏！ 因你的大能，仇敵要投降你。

4 All the earth shall worship Thee, and shall sing praises unto Thee; they shall sing praises to Thy name.' (Selah)

全地要敬拜你，歌頌你， 要歌頌你的名。 (細拉)

5 Come, and see the works of God; He is terrible in His doing toward the children of men.

你們來看上帝所行的， 他向世人所做之事是可畏的。

6 He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot; there let us rejoice in Him!

他將海變成乾地，眾民步行過河； 我們在那裏因他歡喜。

7 Who ruleth by His might for ever; His eyes keep watch upon the nations; let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)

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)

8 Bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of His praise to be heard;

萬民哪，你們當稱頌我們的上帝， 使人得聽讚美他的聲音。

9 Who hath set our soul in life, and suffered not our foot to be moved,

他使我們的性命存活， 也不叫我們的腳搖動。

10 For Thou, O God, hast tried us; Thou hast refined us, as silver is refined.

上帝啊，你曾試驗我們， 熬煉我們，如熬煉銀子一樣。

11 Thou didst bring us into the hold; Thou didst lay constraint upon our loins.

你使我們進入網羅， 把重擔放在我們的身上。

12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but Thou didst bring us out unto abundance.

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。

13 I will come into Thy house with burnt-offerings, I will perform unto Thee my vows,

我要用燔祭進你的殿， 向你還我的願，

14 Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in distress.

就是在急難時我嘴唇所發的、 口中所許的。

15 I will offer unto Thee burnt-offerings of fatlings, with the sweet smoke of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)

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)

16 Come, and hearken, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what He hath done for my soul.

凡敬畏上帝的人，你們都來聽！ 我要述說他為我所行的事。

17 I cried unto Him with my mouth, and He was extolled with my tongue.

我曾用口求告他； 我的舌頭也稱他為高。

18 If I had regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear;

我若心裏注重罪孽， 主必不聽。

19 But verily God hath heard; He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

但上帝實在聽見了； 他側耳聽了我禱告的聲音。

20 Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me.

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。
