Mazmur 66
1 Untuk pemimpin kor. Sebuah nyanyian. Bersorak-sorailah untuk Allah, hai seluruh bumi!
For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm. Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
2 Bernyanyilah dan agungkanlah nama-Nya, muliakanlah Dia dengan puji-pujian.
Sing to the glory of his name! Offer glory and praise!
3 Katakanlah kepada Allah, "Sungguh mengagumkan perbuatan-Mu! Musuh tunduk kepada-Mu penuh ketakutan, sebab sangat besarlah kuasa-Mu.
Tell God, “How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.
4 Seluruh bumi sujud menyembah Engkau, mereka menyanyi memuji nama-Mu."
All the earth will worship you, and will sing to you; they will sing to your name.” (Selah)
5 Datanglah dan pandanglah perbuatan Allah, sungguh mengagumkan karya-karya-Nya di antara manusia!
Come, and see God’s deeds— awesome work on behalf of the children of men.
6 Laut diubah-Nya menjadi tanah kering, leluhur kami menyeberanginya dengan berjalan kaki. Maka kami bergembira karena perbuatan-Nya.
He turned the sea into dry land. They went through the river on foot. There, we rejoiced in him.
7 Ia memerintah dengan perkasa untuk selama-lamanya. Bangsa-bangsa diawasi-Nya, supaya pemberontak tak dapat menyombong terhadap-Nya.
He rules by his might forever. His eyes watch the nations. Don’t let the rebellious rise up against him. (Selah)
8 Pujilah Allah kami, hai bangsa-bangsa, serukanlah pujianmu kepada-Nya!
Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,
9 Ia telah menjaga kami supaya tetap hidup, dan tidak membiarkan kami jatuh.
who preserves our life amongst the living, and doesn’t allow our feet to be moved.
10 Ya Allah, Engkau telah menguji kami seperti orang memurnikan perak di dalam api.
For you, God, have tested us. You have refined us, as silver is refined.
11 Kaubiarkan kami jatuh ke dalam perangkap, dan Kauberi beban yang sangat berat.
You brought us into prison. You laid a burden on our backs.
12 Kaubiarkan kami diinjak-injak musuh; kami melintasi banjir dan api. Tetapi sekarang kami telah Kaubawa ke tempat yang makmur.
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 Aku akan membawa kurban bakaran ke Rumah-Mu dan menepati janjiku kepada-Mu,
I will come into your temple with burnt offerings. I will pay my vows to you,
14 janji yang kuucapkan waktu aku dalam kesusahan.
which my lips promised, and my mouth spoke, when I was in distress.
15 Kupersembahkan kepada-Mu kurban bakaran dari binatang pilihan, kambing domba dan sapi jantan, asapnya membubung ke langit.
I will offer to you burnt offerings of fat animals, with the offering of rams, I will offer bulls with goats. (Selah)
16 Datanglah dan dengarlah, hai semua orang takwa, akan kuceritakan apa yang dilakukan Allah bagiku.
Come and hear, all you who fear God. I will declare what he has done for my soul.
17 Aku telah berseru minta tolong kepada-Nya; sekarang kunyanyikan pujian bagi-Nya.
I cried to him with my mouth. He was extolled with my tongue.
18 Sekiranya aku senang memikirkan kejahatan, pasti TUHAN tak mau mendengarkan.
If I cherished sin in my heart, the Lord wouldn’t have listened.
19 Tetapi Allah sudah mendengar aku, Ia memperhatikan permohonanku.
But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.
20 Aku memuji Allah sebab Ia tidak menolak doaku, dan tidak berhenti mengasihi aku.
Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his loving kindness from me.
