Psalm 66
Expanded Bible
Praise God for What He Has Done
For the director of music. A song. A psalm.
66 Everything on earth, shout with joy to God!
2 ·Sing [Make a psalm] about ·his glory [L the glory of his name]!
Make his praise glorious!
3 Say to God, “Your works are ·amazing [majestic]!
Because your power is great,
your enemies ·fall [cringe; cower] before you.
4 All the earth ·worships [bows down to] you
and ·sings praises to [makes a psalm for] you.
They ·sing praises to [make a psalm for] your name [Phil. 2:10–12].” ·
5 Come and see what God has done,
the ·amazing [majestic] things he has done for people.
6 He turned the sea into dry land [Ex. 14–15].
The people crossed the river on foot [Josh. 3].
So let us rejoice because of what he did.
7 He rules forever with his power.
·He keeps his eye [L His eyes keep watch] on the nations,
so ·people should not turn [the rebellious might not rise] against him. ·
8 You people, ·praise [bless] our God;
·loudly sing his praise [L let the sound of his praise be heard].
9 He ·protects our lives [L sets our lives among the living]
and does not let ·us be defeated [L our feet be moved].
10 God, you have ·tested [examined] us;
you have ·purified [refined] us like silver [C removing the dross].
11 You ·let us be trapped [brought us into the net]
and put ·a heavy load on us [L misery on our backs].
12 You let our enemies ·walk on [L ride over] our heads.
We went through fire and ·flood [L water],
but you brought us to a place with ·good things [abundance].
13 I will come to your ·Temple [L house] with burnt offerings [Lev. 1:1–17].
I will ·give you what I promised [repay my vows],
14 ·things I promised when I was in trouble [L which my lips poured out and my mouth said when I was in distress].
15 I will bring you burnt offerings [Lev. 1:1–17] of fat animals,
and ·I will offer sheep, bulls, and goats [L with the smoke of rams, I will offer bulls and goats]. ·
16 All of you who fear God [Prov. 1:7], come and listen,
and I will tell you what he has done for me.
17 I ·cried out [called] to him with my mouth
and ·praised [exalted] him with my tongue.
18 If I had ·known of [L seen] any sin in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened to me.
19 But God has listened;
he has ·heard [L paid attention to the sound of] my prayer.
20 ·Praise [Blessed be] God,
who did not ·ignore [turn aside from] my prayer
or hold back his ·love [loyalty] from me.
Salmos 66
La Biblia de las Américas
Himno a Dios por su poderosa liberación
Para el director del coro. Cántico. Salmo.
66 Aclamad con júbilo a Dios, toda la tierra(A);
2 cantad la gloria de su nombre(B);
haced gloriosa su alabanza(C).
3 Decid a Dios: ¡Cuán portentosas son tus obras(D)!
Por la grandeza de tu poder, tus enemigos fingirán obedecerte[a](E).
4 Toda la tierra te adorará(F),
y cantará alabanzas a ti(G),
cantará alabanzas a tu nombre. (Selah[b])
5 Venid y ved las obras de Dios(H),
admirable[c] en sus hechos(I) a favor de los hijos de los hombres.
6 Convirtió el mar en tierra seca(J);
cruzaron el río a pie(K);
regocijémonos allí en Él(L).
7 Él domina con su poder para siempre(M);
sus ojos velan sobre las naciones(N);
no se enaltezcan los rebeldes(O). (Selah)
8 Bendecid, oh pueblos, a nuestro Dios,
y haced oír la voz de su alabanza(P).
9 Él es quien nos guarda con vida[d](Q),
y no permite que nuestros pies resbalen[e](R).
10 Porque tú nos has probado(S), oh Dios;
nos has refinado como se refina la plata(T).
11 Nos metiste en la red(U);
carga pesada pusiste sobre nuestros lomos.
12 Hiciste cabalgar hombres sobre nuestras cabezas(V);
pasamos por el fuego y por el agua(W),
pero tú nos sacaste a un lugar de abundancia(X).
13 Entraré en tu casa con holocaustos(Y);
a ti cumpliré mis votos(Z),
14 los que pronunciaron mis labios
y habló mi boca cuando yo estaba en angustia(AA).
15 Te ofreceré holocaustos de animales engordados,
con sahumerio[f] de carneros(AB);
haré una ofrenda de toros[g] y machos cabríos(AC). (Selah)
16 Venid y oíd, todos los que a Dios teméis[h](AD),
y contaré lo que Él ha hecho por mi alma(AE).
17 Con mi boca clamé a Él,
y ensalzado fue con[i] mi lengua(AF).
18 Si observo iniquidad en mi corazón(AG),
el Señor no me escuchará[j](AH).
19 Pero ciertamente Dios me ha oído(AI);
Él atendió a la voz de mi oración.
20 Bendito sea Dios(AJ),
que no ha desechado mi oración(AK),
ni apartado de mí su misericordia.
