< Psalms 66 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A SONG. A PSALM. Shout to God, all the earth.
一篇詩歌,交與伶長。 全地都當向上帝歡呼!
2 Praise the glory of His Name, Make honorable His praise.
歌頌他名的榮耀! 用讚美的言語將他的榮耀發明!
3 Say to God, “How fearful Your works—By the abundance of Your strength, Your enemies feign obedience to You.
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 bows to You, They sing praise to You, they praise Your 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, Fearful acts toward the sons 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 has turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass over on foot, There we 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 Ruling by His might for all time, His eyes watch among the nations, The stubborn do not 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 you peoples, And sound the voice of His praise,
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 has placed our soul in life, And has not permitted our feet to be moved.
他使我們的性命存活, 也不叫我們的腳搖動。
10 For You have tried us, O God, You have refined us as the refining of silver.
上帝啊,你曾試驗我們, 熬煉我們,如熬煉銀子一樣。
11 You have brought us into a net, You have placed pressure on our loins.
你使我們進入網羅, 把重擔放在我們的身上。
12 You have caused man to ride at our head. We have entered into fire and into water, And You bring us out to a watered place.
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 enter Your house with burnt-offerings, I complete my vows to You,
我要用燔祭進你的殿, 向你還我的願,
14 For my lips were opened, And my mouth spoke in my distress:
就是在急難時我嘴唇所發的、 口中所許的。
15 “I offer to You burnt-offerings of fatlings, With incense of rams, I prepare a bullock with male 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, hear, all you who fear God, And I recount what He did 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 have called to Him [with] my mouth, And exaltation [is] under my tongue.
我曾用口求告他; 我的舌頭也稱他為高。
18 Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, The Lord does not hear.
我若心裏注重罪孽, 主必不聽。
19 But God has heard, He has 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 [is] God, Who has not turned aside my prayer, And His loving-kindness, 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。
