Psalm 66

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 <<For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm.>> Make a joyful noise to God, all the eretz!

2 Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise!

3 Tell God, "How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, Your enemies will submit themselves to you.

4 All the eretz will worship you, And will sing to you; They will sing to your name." Selah.

5 Come, and see God's deeds -- Awesome work on behalf of the children of men.

6 He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.

7 He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Don't let the rebellious rise up against him. Selah.

8 Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,

9 Who preserves our life among the living, And doesn't allow our feet to be moved.

10 For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.

11 You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.

12 You allowed men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and through water, But you brought us to the place of abundance.

13 I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,

14 which my lips promised, And my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.

15 I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, With the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. Selah.

16 Come, and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.

17 I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.

18 If I cherished sin in my heart, The Lord wouldn't have listened.

19 But most assuredly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.

20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, Nor his lovingkindness from me.

The Message Bible MSG

1 All together now - applause for God!

2 Sing songs to the tune of his glory, set glory to the rhythms of his praise.

3 Say of God, "We've never seen anything like him!" When your enemies see you in action, they slink off like scolded dogs.

4 The whole earth falls to its knees - it worships you, sings to you, can't stop enjoying your name and fame.

5 Take a good look at God's wonders - they'll take your breath away.

6 He converted sea to dry land; travelers crossed the river on foot. Now isn't that cause for a song?

7 Ever sovereign in his high tower, he keeps his eye on the godless nations. Rebels don't dare raise a finger against him.

8 Bless our God, O peoples! Give him a thunderous welcome!

9 Didn't he set us on the road to life? Didn't he keep us out of the ditch?

10 He trained us first, passed us like silver through refining fires,

11 Brought us into hardscrabble country, pushed us to our very limit,

12 Road-tested us inside and out, took us to hell and back; Finally he brought us to this well-watered place.

13 I'm bringing my prizes and presents to your house. I'm doing what I said I'd do,

14 What I solemnly swore I'd do that day when I was in so much trouble:

15 The choicest cuts of meat for the sacrificial meal; Even the fragrance of roasted lamb is like a meal! Or make it an ox garnished with goat meat!

16 All believers, come here and listen, let me tell you what God did for me.

17 I called out to him with my mouth, my tongue shaped the sounds of music.

18 If I had been cozy with evil, the Lord would never have listened.

19 But he most surely did listen, he came on the double when he heard my prayer.

20 Blessed be God: he didn't turn a deaf ear, he stayed with me, loyal in his love.
