Psalms 66
1 [For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm.] Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth.
Untuk pemimpin kor. Sebuah nyanyian. Bersorak-sorailah untuk Allah, hai seluruh bumi!
2 Sing to the glory of his name. Offer glory and praise.
Bernyanyilah dan agungkanlah nama-Nya, muliakanlah Dia dengan puji-pujian.
3 Tell God, "How awesome are your deeds. Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.
Katakanlah kepada Allah, "Sungguh mengagumkan perbuatan-Mu! Musuh tunduk kepada-Mu penuh ketakutan, sebab sangat besarlah kuasa-Mu.
4 All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name." (Selah)
Seluruh bumi sujud menyembah Engkau, mereka menyanyi memuji nama-Mu."
5 Come, and see God's deeds—awesome work on behalf of the descendants of Adam.
Datanglah dan pandanglah perbuatan Allah, sungguh mengagumkan karya-karya-Nya di antara manusia!
6 He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.
Laut diubah-Nya menjadi tanah kering, leluhur kami menyeberanginya dengan berjalan kaki. Maka kami bergembira karena perbuatan-Nya.
7 He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Do not let the rebellious rise up against him. (Selah)
Ia memerintah dengan perkasa untuk selama-lamanya. Bangsa-bangsa diawasi-Nya, supaya pemberontak tak dapat menyombong terhadap-Nya.
8 Praise our God, you peoples. Make the sound of his praise heard,
Pujilah Allah kami, hai bangsa-bangsa, serukanlah pujianmu kepada-Nya!
9 who preserves our life among the living, and doesn't allow our feet to be moved.
Ia telah menjaga kami supaya tetap hidup, dan tidak membiarkan kami jatuh.
10 For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.
Ya Allah, Engkau telah menguji kami seperti orang memurnikan perak di dalam api.
11 You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.
Kaubiarkan kami jatuh ke dalam perangkap, dan Kauberi beban yang sangat berat.
12 You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, but you brought us out to a spacious place.
Kaubiarkan kami diinjak-injak musuh; kami melintasi banjir dan api. Tetapi sekarang kami telah Kaubawa ke tempat yang makmur.
13 I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,
Aku akan membawa kurban bakaran ke Rumah-Mu dan menepati janjiku kepada-Mu,
14 which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.
janji yang kuucapkan waktu aku dalam kesusahan.
15 I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. (Selah)
Kupersembahkan kepada-Mu kurban bakaran dari binatang pilihan, kambing domba dan sapi jantan, asapnya membubung ke langit.
16 Come, and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.
Datanglah dan dengarlah, hai semua orang takwa, akan kuceritakan apa yang dilakukan Allah bagiku.
17 I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.
Aku telah berseru minta tolong kepada-Nya; sekarang kunyanyikan pujian bagi-Nya.
18 If I cherished sin in my heart, YHWH wouldn't have listened.
Sekiranya aku senang memikirkan kejahatan, pasti TUHAN tak mau mendengarkan.
19 But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.
Tetapi Allah sudah mendengar aku, Ia memperhatikan permohonanku.
20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me.
Aku memuji Allah sebab Ia tidak menolak doaku, dan tidak berhenti mengasihi aku.
