Psalms 66

1 To the chief Musician, A Song [or] Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:

一篇詩歌，交與伶長。 全地都當向上帝歡呼！

2 Sing forth the honour 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 terrible [art thou in] thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto 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 unto thee; they shall sing [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 flood on foot: there did 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 He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold 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 O bless our God, ye people, 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 Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not 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 thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.

上帝啊，你曾試驗我們， 熬煉我們，如熬煉銀子一樣。

11 Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction 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 broughtest us out into a wealthy [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 will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay 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 trouble.

就是在急難時我嘴唇所發的、 口中所許的。

15 I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense 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] hear, 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 regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear [me: ]

我若心裏注重罪孽， 主必不聽。

19 [But] verily God hath heard [me; ] 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, which 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。
