166:1 Za 81:1; 84:8; 98:4; 100:1Mpigieni Mungu kelele za shangwe, dunia yote!
266:2 Za 79:9; 86:9; Isa 42:8, 12; 43:21Imbeni utukufu wa jina lake;
mpeni sifa zake kwa utukufu!
366:3 Kum 7:21; 10:21; Za 106:22; 111:6; 18:44; 65:5; 145:6; 2Sam 22:45Mwambieni Mungu, “Jinsi gani yalivyo ya kutisha matendo yako!
Uwezo wako ni mkuu mno kiasi kwamba
adui wananyenyekea mbele zako.
466:4 Za 22:27; 7:17; 67:3Dunia yote yakusujudia,
wanakuimbia wewe sifa,
wanaliimbia sifa jina lako.”
566:5 Za 66:3; 46:8; 106:22Njooni mwone yale Mungu aliyoyatenda,
mambo ya kutisha aliyoyatenda
miongoni mwa wanadamu!

wakapita kati ya maji kwa miguu,
njooni, tumshangilie.
766:7 Kut 15:18; 3:16; Hes 17:10; Za 11:4; 112:10; 140:8; 145:13Yeye hutawala kwa uwezo wake milele,
macho yake huangalia mataifa yote:
waasi wasithubutu kujiinua dhidi yake.
866:8 Za 22:23Enyi mataifa, msifuni Mungu wetu,
sauti ya sifa yake isikike,
966:9 Za 30:3; Kum 32:35; Ay 12:5ameyahifadhi maisha yetu
na kuizuia miguu yetu kuteleza.
1066:10 Kut 15:25; Ay 6:29; 28:1; Za 12:6; Zek 13:9Ee Mungu, wewe ulitujaribu,

na umetubebesha mizigo mizito
migongoni mwetu.
1266:12 Isa 51:13; Za 18:19Uliwaruhusu watu watukalie vichwani,
tulipita kwenye moto na kwenye maji,
lakini ulituleta kwenye nchi
iliyojaa utajiri tele.

na kukutimizia nadhiri zangu:
14nadhiri ambazo midomo yangu iliahidi
na nilizotamka kwa kinywa changu
nilipokuwa katika shida.
1566:15 Law 16:5; Za 51:19Nitakutolea dhabihu za wanyama wanono
na sadaka za kondoo dume,
nitakutolea mafahali na mbuzi.
1666:16 Za 34:11; 71:15, 24Njooni msikilize ninyi nyote mnaomcha Mungu,
nami niwaambie aliyonitendea.
17Nilimlilia kwa kinywa changu,
sifa zake zilikuwa katika ulimi wangu.
1866:18 Kum 1:45; 1Sam 8:18; Yak 4:3; Isa 1:15; Ay 11:14, 15; Mit 15:29Kama ningekuwa nimeyaficha maovu moyoni mwangu,
Bwana asingekuwa amenisikiliza;
1966:19 Za 18:6lakini hakika Mungu amenisikiliza
na amesikia sauti yangu katika maombi.
2066:20 Za 22:24Sifa apewe Mungu,
ambaye hakulikataa ombi langu
wala kunizuilia upendo wake!

1Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:66.1 all…: Heb. all the earth
2Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.
3Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.66.3 submit…: or, yield feigned obedience: Heb. lie
4All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah.
5Come and see the works of God: he is terrible in his doing toward the children of men.
6He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the flood on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7He ruleth by his power for ever; his eyes behold the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.
8O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:
9Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.66.9 holdeth: Heb. putteth
10For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
11Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.
12Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.66.12 wealthy: Heb. moist
13I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
14Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.66.14 uttered: Heb. opened
15I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.66.15 fatlings: Heb. marrow
16Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
19But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
