Psalms 66

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	BIBBIA TINTORI
1 For the leader. A song; a psalm.	1 (Per la fine. Fra gli inni. Salmo del cantico di David).
2 Shout joyfully to God, all you on earth; sing of his glorious name; give him glorious praise.	2 Dio abbia pietà di noi e ci benedica, faccia risplendere il suo volto sopra di noi, abbia pietà di noi.
3 Say to God: "How awesome your deeds! Before your great strength your enemies cringe.	3 Sia conosciuta su tutta la terra la tua via e la tua salvezza da tutte le genti.
4 All on earth fall in worship before you; they sing of you, sing of your name!" Selah	4 Ti celebrino i popoli, o Dio, ti celebrino i popoli tutti.
5 Come and see the works of God, awesome in the deeds done for us.	5 Si rallegrino ed esultino le genti, perchè tu giudichi i popoli con equità, e guidi sulla terra le nazioni.
6 He changed the sea to dry land; through the river they passed on foot. Therefore let us rejoice in him,	6 Ti celebrino i popoli, o Dio, ti celebrino i popoli tutti.
7 who rules by might forever, Whose eyes are fixed upon the nations. Let no rebel rise to challenge! Selah	7 La terra ha dati i suoi frutti: ci benedica Dio, il nostro Dio.
8 Bless our God, you peoples; loudly sound his praise,	8 Ci benedica Dio, e lo temano tutti i confini della terra.
9 Who has kept us alive and not allowed our feet to slip.
10 You tested us, O God, tried us as silver tried by fire.
11 You led us into a snare; you bound us at the waist as captives.
12 You let captors set foot on our neck; we went through fire and water; then you led us out to freedom.
13 I will bring holocausts to your house; to you I will fulfill my vows,
14 The vows my lips pronounced and my mouth spoke in distress.
15 Holocausts of fatlings I will offer you and burnt offerings of rams; I will sacrifice oxen and goats. Selah
16 Come and hear, all you who fear God, while I recount what has been done for me.
17 I called to the Lord with my mouth; praise was upon my tongue.
18 Had I cherished evil in my heart, the Lord would not have heard.
19 But God did hear and listened to my voice in prayer.
20 Blessed be God, who did not refuse me the kindness I sought in prayer.
