诗篇 66
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
颂赞与感恩
一首诗歌，交给乐长。
66 世人啊，你们要向上帝欢呼，
2 颂赞祂荣耀的名，
赞美祂的荣耀。
3 要对上帝说：“你的作为令人敬畏！
你的大能使敌人屈膝投降。
4 普天下都敬拜你，
颂赞你，颂赞你的名。”（细拉）
5 来吧，看看上帝的作为，
祂为世人行了何等奇妙的事！
6 祂将沧海变为干地，
让百姓步行经过。
让我们因祂的作为而欢欣吧！
7 祂以大能永远掌权，
祂的眼目鉴察列国，
悖逆之徒不可在祂面前妄自尊大。（细拉）
8 列邦啊，要赞美我们的上帝，
让歌颂祂的声音四处飘扬。
9 祂保全我们的生命，
不让我们失脚滑倒。
10 上帝啊，你试验我们，
熬炼我们如熬炼银子。
11 你让我们陷入网罗，
把重担压在我们的背上。
12 你让别人骑在我们的头上。
我们曾经历水火，
但你带我们到达丰盛之地。
13 我要带着燔祭来到你殿中，
履行我向你许的誓言，
14 就是我在危难中许下的誓言。
15 我要献上肥美的牲畜，
以公绵羊作馨香之祭献给你，
我要献上公牛和山羊。（细拉）
16 敬畏上帝的人啊，
你们都来听吧，
我要告诉你们祂为我所做的事。
17 我曾开口向祂呼求，
扬声赞美祂。
18 倘若我心中藏匿罪恶，
主必不垂听我的呼求。
19 然而，上帝听了我的祷告，
倾听了我的祈求。
20 上帝当受称颂！
祂没有对我的祷告拒而不听，
也没有收回祂对我的慈爱。
Psalm 66
1599 Geneva Bible
66 1 He provoketh all men to praise the Lord and to consider his works. 6 He setteth forth the power of God to affray the rebels. 10 And showeth how God hath delivered Israel from great bondage and afflictions. 13 He promiseth to give sacrifice, 16 And provoketh all men to hear what God hath done for him, and to praise his Name.
To him that excelleth. A song or Psalm.
1 Rejoice in God, [a]all ye inhabitants of the earth.
2 Sing forth the glory of his Name: make his praise glorious.
3 Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies be [b]in subjection unto thee.
4 All the world shall worship thee, and sing unto thee, even sing of thy Name. Selah.
5 [c]Come and behold the works of God: he is terrible in his doings toward [d]the sons of men.
6 He hath turned the sea into dry land: they passed through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7 He ruleth the world with his power: his eyes behold the nations: the rebellious shall not [e]exalt themselves. Selah.
8 Praise our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9 Which [f]holdeth our souls in life, and suffereth not our feet to slip.
10 For thou, O God, hast proved us, thou hast tried us as silver is tried.
11 Thou hast brought us unto the [g]snare, and laid a strait chain upon our loins.
12 Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads: we went into fire and into water, but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
13 I will go into thine [h]House with burnt offerings, and will pay thee my vows,
14 Which my lips have promised, and my mouth hath spoken in mine affliction.
15 I will offer unto thee the burnt offerings of fat rams with incense: I will prepare bullocks and goats. Selah.
16 [i]Come and hearken, all ye that fear God, and I will tell you what he hath done to my soul.
17 I called unto him with my mouth, and he was exalted with my tongue.
18 [j]If I regard wickedness in mine heart, the Lord will not hear me.
19 But God hath heard me, and considered the voice of my prayer.
20 Praised be God, which hath not put back my prayer, nor his mercy from me.

Psalm 66
Praise for God’s Mighty Acts
For the choir director. A song. A psalm.
1 Shout joyfully to God, all the earth!(A)
2 Sing about the glory of His name;
make His praise glorious.(B)
3 Say to God, “How awe-inspiring are Your works!
Your enemies will cringe before You
because of Your great strength.(C)
4 All the earth will worship You
and sing praise to You.
They will sing praise to Your name.”(D)
5 Come and see the wonders of God;(E)
His acts for humanity are awe-inspiring.
6 He turned the sea into dry land,
and they crossed the river on foot.(F)
There we rejoiced in Him.(G)
7 He rules forever by His might;
He keeps His eye on the nations.(H)
The rebellious should not exalt themselves.(I)
8 Praise our God, you peoples;
let the sound of His praise be heard.(J)
9 He keeps us alive[a]
and does not allow our feet to slip.(K)
10 For You, God, tested us;
You refined us as silver is refined.(L)
11 You lured us into a trap;
You placed burdens on our backs.(M)
12 You let men ride over our heads;
we went through fire and water,
but You brought us out to abundance.[b](N)
13 I will enter Your house with burnt offerings;
I will pay You my vows(O)
14 that my lips promised
and my mouth spoke during my distress.(P)
15 I will offer You fattened sheep as burnt offerings,
with the fragrant smoke of rams;
I will sacrifice oxen with goats.(Q)
16 Come and listen, all who fear God,
and I will tell what He has done for me.(R)
17 I cried out to Him with my mouth,
and praise was on my tongue.(S)
18 If I had been aware of malice in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened.(T)
19 However, God has listened;
He has paid attention to the sound of my prayer.(U)
20 May God be praised!
He has not turned away my prayer
or turned His faithful love from me.(V)
