Psalms 66

1 [Tell] everyone on the earth that they should sing joyfully to praise God!

To the choirmaster a song a psalm shout for joy to God O all the earth.

2 They should sing songs that say that God [MTY] is very great, and they should tell everyone that he is very glorious!

Sing praises [the] glory of name his make glory praise his.

3 They should say to God, “The things that you do are awesome! You are very powerful, with the result that your enemies (cringe/bow down) in front of you.”

Say to God how! awesome [are] deeds your in [the] greatness of strength your they cringe to you enemies your.

4 Everyone on the earth [should] worship God and sing to praise him and honor him [MTY].

All the earth - they bow down to you so they may sing praises to you they sing praises to name your (Selah)

5 Come and think about what God has done! Think about the awesome things that he has done.

Come and see [the] works of God [who is] awesome of deed on [the] children of humankind.

6 He caused the [Red] Sea to become dry land, [with the result that our] ancestors were able to walk right through it. There we rejoiced because of what he [had done].

He turned [the] sea - into dry land in the river they passed on foot there let us rejoice in him.

7 By his great power he rules forever, and he keeps watching all the nations [to see what things they do], [so] those nations that want to rebel [against him] should not be proud.

[he is] ruling By might his - forever eyes his on the nations they keep watch the rebellious [people] - may not (they be exalted *QK) themselves (Selah)

8 You people [of all nations], praise our God! Praise him loudly in order that people will hear you as you praise him.

Bless O peoples - God our and make heard [the] sound of praise his.

9 He has kept us alive, and he has not allowed us to (stumble/be defeated).

[who] placed Self our in life and not he has permitted to slip foot our.

10 God, you have tested us; you have allowed us to experience great difficulties [to make our lives become pure] as [people] put precious metals in a hot fire [to burn out what is impure] [MET].

For you have tested us O God you have refined us as refine silver.

11 [It is as if] you allowed us to fall into traps [MET], and you [forced us to endure difficult things which were like] putting heavy loads on our backs [MET].

You have brought us in the net you have put affliction on hips our.

12 You allowed [our] enemies to trample on us; we [experienced difficulties/troubles that were like] [MET] walking through fires and floods, but now you have brought us into a place where we have plenty.

You have made ride a man to head our we have gone in fire and in water and you have brought out us to superfluity.

13 [Yahweh], I will bring to your temple offerings that are to be completely burned [on the altar]; I will offer to you what I promised.

I will come house your with burnt offerings I will pay to you vows my.

14 When I was experiencing [much] trouble, I said that I would bring offerings to you [if you rescued me]; [and you did rescue me, so] I will bring to you what I promised.

Which they opened lips my and it spoke mouth my when it was distress to me.

15 I will bring sheep to be burned on the altar, and I will [also] sacrifice bulls and goats, and when they are burning, [you will be pleased when] the smoke [rises up] ([to you/to the sky]).

Burnt offerings of fatlings I will offer up to you with [the] smoke of rams I will offer cattle with goats (Selah)

16 All you [people] who revere God, come and listen, and I will tell you what he has done for me.

Come listen so let me recount O all [those] fearing God [that] which he has done for self my.

17 I called out to him to help me, and I praised him while I was speaking to him [MTY].

To him mouth my I called out and exaltation [was] under tongue my.

18 If I had ignored the sins that I had committed, the Lord would not have paid any attention to me.

Wickedness if I had considered in heart my not he will listen - [the] Lord.

19 But because [I confessed my sins], God has listened to me and he paid attention to my prayers.

Nevertheless he has heard God he has paid attention to [the] sound of prayer my.

20 I praise God because he has not ignored my prayers or stopped faithfully loving me.

[be] blessed God who not he has turned aside prayer my and covenant loyalty his from with me.
