Psalms 66:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 66:8

O bless our God, ye people
In all countries, that know the Lord and fear him; ascribe blessing, and honour and glory, to Christ our God, on account of his works, actions, perfections, kingdom and power; and because of the destruction of those who are rebels to his government;

and make the voice of his praise to be heard;
far and near, in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs; by shoutings, and loud acclamations of joy; see ( Revelation 19:5 Revelation 19:6 ) ; where Christ is called our God, and a like exhortation is made as here.

6 He turned the sea into dry land, and they crossed the river on foot. There we rejoiced in Him.
7 He rules forever by His might; He keeps His eye on the nations. The rebellious should not exalt themselves. Selah
8 Praise our God, you peoples; let the sound of His praise be heard.
9 He keeps us alive and does not allow our feet to slip.
10 For You, God, tested us; You refined us as silver is refined.
