< Psalms 66 >

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A SONG. A PSALM. Shout to God, all the earth.
לַמְנַצֵּחַ שִׁיר מִזְמוֹר הָרִיעוּ לֵאלֹהִים כׇּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃
2 Praise the glory of His Name, Make honorable His praise.
זַמְּרוּ כְבֽוֹד־שְׁמוֹ שִׂימוּ כָבוֹד תְּהִלָּתֽוֹ׃
3 Say to God, “How fearful Your works—By the abundance of Your strength, Your enemies feign obedience to You.
אִמְרוּ לֵאלֹהִים מַה־נּוֹרָא מַעֲשֶׂיךָ בְּרֹב עֻזְּךָ יְֽכַחֲשׁוּ לְךָ אֹיְבֶֽיךָ׃
4 All the earth bows to You, They sing praise to You, they praise Your Name.” (Selah)
כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ ׀ יִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְךָ וִיזַמְּרוּ־לָךְ יְזַמְּרוּ שִׁמְךָ סֶֽלָה׃
5 Come, and see the works of God, Fearful acts toward the sons of men.
לְכוּ וּרְאוּ מִפְעֲלוֹת אֱלֹהִים נוֹרָא עֲלִילָה עַל־בְּנֵי אָדָֽם׃
6 He has turned a sea to dry land, Through a river they pass over on foot, There we rejoice in Him.
הָפַךְ יָם ׀ לְֽיַבָּשָׁה בַּנָּהָר יַעַבְרוּ בְרָגֶל שָׁם נִשְׂמְחָה־בּֽוֹ׃
7 Ruling by His might for all time, His eyes watch among the nations, The stubborn do not exalt themselves. (Selah)
מֹשֵׁל בִּגְבוּרָתוֹ ׀ עוֹלָם עֵינָיו בַּגּוֹיִם תִּצְפֶּינָה הַסּוֹרְרִים ׀ אַל־[יָרוּמוּ] (ירימו) לָמוֹ סֶֽלָה׃
8 Bless our God you peoples, And sound the voice of His praise,
בָּרְכוּ עַמִּים ׀ אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְהַשְׁמִיעוּ קוֹל תְּהִלָּתֽוֹ׃
9 Who has placed our soul in life, And has not permitted our feet to be moved.
הַשָּׂם נַפְשֵׁנוּ בַּחַיִּים וְלֹֽא־נָתַן לַמּוֹט רַגְלֵֽנוּ׃
10 For You have tried us, O God, You have refined us as the refining of silver.
כִּֽי־בְחַנְתָּנוּ אֱלֹהִים צְרַפְתָּנוּ כִּצְרׇף־כָּֽסֶף׃
11 You have brought us into a net, You have placed pressure on our loins.
הֲבֵאתָנוּ בַמְּצוּדָה שַׂמְתָּ מוּעָקָה בְמׇתְנֵֽינוּ׃
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.
הִרְכַּבְתָּ אֱנוֹשׁ לְרֹאשֵׁנוּ בָּֽאנוּ־בָאֵשׁ וּבַמַּיִם וַתּוֹצִיאֵנוּ לָרְוָיָֽה׃
13 I enter Your house with burnt-offerings, I complete my vows to You,
אָבוֹא בֵיתְךָ בְעוֹלוֹת אֲשַׁלֵּם לְךָ נְדָרָֽי׃
14 For my lips were opened, And my mouth spoke in my distress:
אֲשֶׁר־פָּצוּ שְׂפָתָי וְדִבֶּר־פִּי בַּצַּר־לִֽי׃
15 “I offer to You burnt-offerings of fatlings, With incense of rams, I prepare a bullock with male goats.” (Selah)
עֹלוֹת מֵיחִים אַֽעֲלֶה־לָּךְ עִם־קְטֹרֶת אֵילִים אֶעֱשֶֽׂה בָקָר עִם־עַתּוּדִים סֶֽלָה׃
16 Come, hear, all you who fear God, And I recount what He did for my soul.
לְכוּ־שִׁמְעוּ וַאֲסַפְּרָה כׇּל־יִרְאֵי אֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לְנַפְשִֽׁי׃
17 I have called to Him [with] my mouth, And exaltation [is] under my tongue.
אֵלָיו פִּֽי־קָרָאתִי וְרוֹמַם תַּחַת לְשׁוֹנִֽי׃
18 Iniquity, if I have seen in my heart, The Lord does not hear.
אָוֶן אִם־רָאִיתִי בְלִבִּי לֹא יִשְׁמַע ׀ אֲדֹנָֽי׃
19 But God has heard, He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
אָכֵן שָׁמַע אֱלֹהִים הִקְשִׁיב בְּקוֹל תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃
20 Blessed [is] God, Who has not turned aside my prayer, And His loving-kindness, from me!
בָּרוּךְ אֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא־הֵסִיר תְּפִלָּתִי וְחַסְדּוֹ מֵאִתִּֽי׃
