Psalms 66

1 Shout aloud untoGod, all the earth:

1 Send up a glad cry to God, all the earth:

1Make a joyful noise unto God, all the earth:

2 Sing forth the glory of his name, make his praise glorious;

2Make a song in honour of his name: give praise and glory to him.

2Sing forth the glory of his name: Make his praise glorious.

3 Say untoGod, How terrible are thy works! because of the greatness of thy strength, thine enemies come cringing unto thee.

3Say to God, How greatly to be feared are your works! because of your great power your haters are forced to put themselves under your feet.

3Say unto God, How terrible are thy works! Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.

4 All the earth shall worship thee, and sing psalms unto thee: they shall sing forth thy name. Selah.

4Let all the earth give you worship, and make songs to you; let them make songs to your name. (Selah.)

4All the earth shall worship thee, And shall sing unto thee; They shall sing to thy name. [Selah

5 Come and see the works ofGod: he is terrible in [his] doings toward the children of men.

5Come and see the works of God: he is to be feared in all he does to the children of men.

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

6 He turned the sea into dry [land]; they went through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him.

6The sea was turned into dry land: they went through the river on foot: there did we have joy in him.

6He turned the sea into dry land; They went through the river on foot: There did we rejoice in him.

7 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes observe the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

7He is ruling in power for ever; his eyes are watching the nations: may his haters have no strength against him. (Selah.)

7He ruleth by his might for ever; His eyes observe the nations: Let not the rebellious exalt themselves. [Selah

8 Bless ourGod, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;

8Give blessings to our God, O you peoples, let the voice of his praise be loud;

8Oh bless our God, ye peoples, And make the voice of his praise to be heard;

9 Who hath set our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.

9Because he gives us life, and has not let our feet be moved.

9Who holdeth our soul in life, And suffereth not our feet to be moved.

10 For thou, OGod, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

10For you, O God, have put us to the test: testing us by fire like silver.

10For thou, O God, hast proved us: Thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

11 Thou broughtest us into a net, thou didst lay a heavy burden upon our loins;

11You let us be put in prison; chains were put on our legs.

11Thou broughtest us into the net; Thou layedst a sore burden upon our loins.

12 Thou didst cause men to ride over our head; we went through fire and through water: but thou hast brought us out into abundance.

12You let men go driving over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but you took us out into a wide place.

12Thou didst cause men to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.

13 I will go into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will perform my vows to thee,

13I will come into your house with burned offerings, I will make payment of my debt to you,

13I will come into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows,

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

14Keeping the word which came from my lips, and which my mouth said, when I was in trouble.

14Which my lips uttered, And my mouth spake, when I was in distress.

15 I will offer up unto thee burnt-offerings of fatted beasts, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.

15I will give you burned offerings of fat beasts, and the smoke of sheep; I will make offerings of oxen and goats. (Selah.)

15I will offer unto thee burnt-offerings of fatlings, With the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. [Selah

16 Come, hear, all ye that fearGod, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

16Come, give ear to me, all you God-fearing men, so that I may make clear to you what he has done for my soul.

16Come, and hear, all ye that fear God, And I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

17 I called unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.

17My voice went up to him, and I was lifted up from the underworld.

17I cried unto him with my mouth, And he was extolled with my tongue.

18 Had I regarded iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not hear.

18I said in my heart, The Lord will not give ear to me:

18If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear:

19 ButGod hath heard; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

19But truly God's ear has been open; he has give attention to the voice of my prayer.

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

20 Blessed beGod, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his loving-kindness from me!

20Praise be to God who has not taken away his good faith and his mercy from me.

20Blessed be God, Who hath not turned away my prayer, Nor his lovingkindness from me.
