To the chief MusicianH5329, A SongH7892 or PsalmH4210. Make a joyful noiseH7321 unto GodH430, all ye landsH776: {all…: Heb. all the earth}
Sing forthH2167 the honourH3519 of his nameH8034: makeH7760 his praiseH8416 gloriousH3519.
SayH559 unto GodH430, How terribleH3372 art thou in thy worksH4639! through the greatnessH7230 of thy powerH5797 shall thine enemiesH341 submitH3584 themselves unto thee. {submit…: or, yield feigned obedience: Heb. lie}
All the earthH776 shall worshipH7812 thee, and shall singH2167 unto thee; they shall singH2167 to thy nameH8034. SelahH5542.
ComeH3212 and seeH7200 the worksH4659 of GodH430: he is terribleH3372 in his doingH5949 toward the childrenH1121 of menH120.
He turnedH2015 the seaH3220 into dryH3004 land: they wentH5674 through the floodH5104 on footH7272: there did we rejoiceH8055 in him.
He rulethH4910 by his powerH1369 for everH5769; his eyesH5869 beholdH6822 the nationsH1471: let not the rebelliousH5637 exaltH7311+H7311 themselves. SelahH5542.
O blessH1288 our GodH430, ye peopleH5971, and make the voiceH6963 of his praiseH8416 to be heardH8085:
Which holdethH7760 our soulH5315 in lifeH2416, and sufferethH5414 not our feetH7272 to be movedH4132. {holdeth: Heb. putteth}
For thou, O GodH430, hast provedH974 us: thou hast triedH6884 us, as silverH3701 is triedH6884.
Thou broughtestH935 us into the netH4686; thou laidstH7760 afflictionH4157 upon our loinsH4975.
Thou hast caused menH582 to rideH7392 over our headsH7218; we wentH935 through fireH784 and through waterH4325: but thou broughtest us outH3318 into a wealthyH7310 place. {wealthy: Heb. moist}
I will goH935 into thy houseH1004 with burnt offeringsH5930: I will payH7999 thee my vowsH5088,
Which my lipsH8193 have utteredH6475, and my mouthH6310 hath spokenH1696, when I was in troubleH6862. {uttered: Heb. opened}
I will offerH5927 unto thee burnt sacrificesH5930 of fatlingsH4220, with the incenseH7004 of ramsH352; I will offerH6213 bullocksH1241 with goatsH6260. SelahH5542. {fatlings: Heb. marrow}
ComeH3212 and hearH8085, all ye that fearH3373 GodH430, and I will declareH5608 what he hath doneH6213 for my soulH5315.
I criedH7121 unto him with my mouthH6310, and he was extolledH7311+H7318 withH8478 my tongueH3956.
If I regardH7200 iniquityH205 in my heartH3820, the LordH136 will not hearH8085 me:
But verilyH403 GodH430 hath heardH8085 me; he hath attendedH7181 to the voiceH6963 of my prayerH8605.
BlessedH1288 be GodH430, which hath not turned awayH5493 my prayerH8605, nor his mercyH2617 from me.
Querverweise zu Psalm 66,7 Ps 66,7
GodH430 hath spokenH1696 onceH259; twiceH8147 have I heardH8085 thisH2098; that powerH5797 belongeth unto GodH430. {power: or, strength}
The LORDH3068 is in his holyH6944 templeH1964, the LORD'SH3068 throneH3678 is in heavenH8064: his eyesH5869 beholdH2372, his eyelidsH6079 tryH974, the childrenH1121 of menH120.
Be wiseH7919 now therefore, O ye kingsH4428: be instructedH3256, ye judgesH8199 of the earthH776.
ServeH5647 the LORDH3068 with fearH3374, and rejoiceH1523 with tremblingH7461.
KissH5401 the SonH1248, lest he be angryH599, and ye perishH6 from the wayH1870, when his wrathH639 is kindledH1197 but a littleH4592. BlessedH835 are all they that put their trustH2620 in him.
And allH3606 the inhabitantsH1753 of the earthH772 are reputedH2804 as nothingH3809: and he doethH5648 according to his willH6634 in the armyH2429 of heavenH8065, and among the inhabitantsH1753 of the earthH772: and noneH3809 canH383 stayH4223 his handH3028, or sayH560 unto him, WhatH4101 doestH5648 thou?
To the chief MusicianH5329, MaschilH4905, A Psalm of DavidH1732, when DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130 cameH935 and toldH5046 SaulH7586, and saidH559 unto him, DavidH1732 is comeH935 to the houseH1004 of AhimelechH288. Why boastestH1984 thou thyself in mischiefH7451, O mightyH1368 man? the goodnessH2617 of GodH410 endureth continuallyH3117.
Thy tongueH3956 devisethH2803 mischiefsH1942; like a sharpH3913 razorH8593, workingH6213 deceitfullyH7423.
Thou lovestH157 evilH7451 more than goodH2896; and lyingH8267 rather than to speakH1696 righteousnessH6664. SelahH5542.
Thou lovestH157 all devouringH1105 wordsH1697, O thou deceitfulH4820 tongueH3956. {O thou…: or, and the deceitful tongue}
GodH410 shall likewise destroyH5422 thee for everH5331, he shall take thee awayH2846, and pluck thee outH5255 of thy dwelling placeH168, and root thee outH8327 of the landH776 of the livingH2416. SelahH5542. {destroy…: Heb. beat thee down}
IH4481+H6925 makeH7761 a decreeH2942, That in everyH3606 dominionH7985 of my kingdomH4437 men trembleH1934+H2112 and fearH1763 beforeH4481+H6925 the GodH426 of DanielH1841: for he is the livingH2417 GodH426, and stedfastH7011 for everH5957, and his kingdomH4437 that which shall notH3809 be destroyedH2255, and his dominionH7985 shall be even untoH5705 the endH5491.
For the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 run to and froH7751 throughout the whole earthH776, to shew himself strongH2388 in the behalf of them whose heartH3824 is perfectH8003 toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishlyH5528: therefore from henceforthH6258 thou shalt haveH3426 warsH4421. {to shew…: or, strongly to hold with them, etc}
For I was enviousH7065 at the foolishH1984, when I sawH7200 the prosperityH7965 of the wickedH7563.
For there are no bandsH2784 in their deathH4194: but their strengthH193 is firmH1277. {firm: Heb. fat}
They are not in troubleH5999 as other menH582; neither are they plaguedH5060 likeH5973 other menH120. {in…: Heb. in the trouble of other men} {like: Heb. with}
Therefore prideH1346 compasseth them about as a chainH6059; violenceH2555 coverethH5848 them as a garmentH7897.
Their eyesH5869 stand outH3318 with fatnessH2459: they have moreH5674 than heartH3824 could wishH4906. {have…: Heb. pass the thoughts of the heart}
They are corruptH4167, and speakH1696 wickedlyH7451 concerning oppressionH6233: they speakH1696 loftilyH4791.
They setH8371 their mouthH6310 against the heavensH8064, and their tongueH3956 walkethH1980 through the earthH776.
Therefore his peopleH5971 returnH7725+H7725 hitherH1988: and watersH4325 of a fullH4392 cup are wrung outH4680 to them.
And they sayH559, How doth GodH410 knowH3045? and is thereH3426 knowledgeH1844 in the most HighH5945?
Behold, these are the ungodlyH7563, who prosperH7961 in the worldH5769; they increaseH7685 in richesH2428.
He deliverethH7804 and rescuethH5338, and he workethH5648 signsH852 and wondersH8540 in heavenH8065 and in earthH772, who hath deliveredH7804 DanielH1841 fromH4481 the powerH3028 of the lionsH744. {power: Cald. hand}
I saidH559 unto the foolsH1984, Deal not foolishlyH1984: and to the wickedH7563, Lift not upH7311 the hornH7161:
AndG2532 leadG1533 usG2248 notG3361 intoG1519 temptationG3986, butG235 deliverG4506 usG2248 fromG575 evilG4190: ForG3754 thineG4675 isG2076 the kingdomG932, andG2532 the powerG1411, andG2532 the gloryG1391, forG1519 everG165. AmenG281.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 cameG4334 and spakeG2980 unto themG846, sayingG3004, AllG3956 powerG1849 is givenG1325 unto meG3427 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 inG1909 earthG1093.
Now I knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 is greaterH1419 than all godsH430: for in the thingH1697 wherein they dealt proudlyH2102 he was above them.
He is wiseH2450 in heartH3824, and mightyH533 in strengthH3581: who hath hardenedH7185 himself against him, and hath prosperedH7999?
Howbeit he meanethH1819 not so, neither doth his heartH3824 thinkH2803 so; but it is in his heartH3824 to destroyH8045 and cut offH3772 nationsH1471 not a fewH4592.
For he saithH559, Are not my princesH8269 altogetherH3162 kingsH4428?
Is not CalnoH3641 as CarchemishH3751? is not HamathH2574 as ArpadH774? is not SamariaH8111 as DamascusH1834?
As my handH3027 hath foundH4672 the kingdomsH4467 of the idolsH457, and whose graven imagesH6456 did excel them of JerusalemH3389 and of SamariaH8111;
Shall I not, as I have doneH6213 unto SamariaH8111 and her idolsH457, so doH6213 to JerusalemH3389 and her idolsH6091?
Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the LordH136 hath performedH1214 his whole workH4639 upon mountH2022 ZionH6726 and on JerusalemH3389, I will punishH6485 the fruitH6529 of the stoutH1433 heartH3824 of the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and the gloryH8597 of his highH7312 looksH5869. {punish: Heb. visit upon} {stout…: Heb. greatness of the heart}
For he saithH559, By the strengthH3581 of my handH3027 I have doneH6213 it, and by my wisdomH2451; for I am prudentH995: and I have removedH5493 the boundsH1367 of the peopleH5971, and have robbedH8154 their treasuresH6259+H6264, and I have put downH3381 the inhabitantsH3427 like a valiantH47+H3524 man: {a valiant…: or, many people}
And my handH3027 hath foundH4672 as a nestH7064 the richesH2428 of the peopleH5971: and as one gatherethH622 eggsH1000 that are leftH5800, have I gatheredH622 all the earthH776; and there was none that movedH5074 the wingH3671, or openedH6475 the mouthH6310, or peepedH6850.
Shall the axeH1631 boastH6286 itself against him that hewethH2672 therewith? or shall the sawH4883 magnifyH1431 itself against him that shakethH5130 it? as if the rodH7626 should shakeH5130 itself against them that lift it upH7311, or as if the staffH4294 should lift upH7311 itself, as if it were no woodH6086. {the rod…: or, a rod should shake them that lift it up} {itself, as if…: or, that which is not wood}
Therefore shall the LordH113, the LordH136+H3068 of hostsH6635, sendH7971 among his fat onesH4924 leannessH7332; and under his gloryH3519 he shall kindleH3344 a burningH3350 like the burning of a fireH784.
But I knowH3045 thy abodeH3427, and thy going outH3318, and thy coming inH935, and thy rageH7264 against me. {abode: or, sitting}
Because thy rageH7264 against me, and thy tumultH7600, is come upH5927 into mine earsH241, therefore will I putH7760 my hookH2397 in thy noseH639, and my bridleH4964 in thy lipsH8193, and I will turn thee backH7725 by the wayH1870 by which thou camestH935.
But when his heartH3825 was lifted upH7313, and his mindH7308 hardenedH8631 in prideH2103, he was deposedH5182 fromH4481 his kinglyH4437 throneH3764, and they tookH5709 his gloryH3367 from himH4481: {in pride: or, to deal proudly} {deposed: Cald. made to come down}
And he was drivenH2957 fromH4481 the sonsH1123 of menH606; and his heartH3825 was madeH7739 likeH5974 the beastsH2423, and his dwellingH4070 was with the wild assesH6167: they fedH2939 him with grassH6211 like oxenH8450, and his bodyH1655 was wetH6647 with the dewH2920 of heavenH8065; tillH5705 he knewH3046 that the most highH5943 GodH426 ruledH7990 in the kingdomH4437 of menH606, and that he appointethH6966 overH5922 it whomsoeverH4479 he willH6634. {his heart…: or, he made his heart equal, etc}
And thouH607 his sonH1247, O BelshazzarH1113, hast notH3809 humbledH8214 thine heartH3825, thoughH6903 thou knewestH3046 allH3606 thisH1836;
But hast lifted upH7313 thyself againstH5922 the LordH4756 of heavenH8065; and they have broughtH858 the vesselsH3984 of his houseH1005 beforeH6925 thee, and thouH607, and thy lordsH7261, thy wivesH7695, and thy concubinesH3904, have drunkH8355 wineH2562 in them; and thou hast praisedH7624 the godsH426 of silverH3702, and goldH1722, of brassH5174, ironH6523, woodH636, and stoneH69, which seeH2370 notH3809, norH3809 hearH8086, norH3809 knowH3046: and the GodH426 in whose handH3028 thy breathH5396 is, and whose are allH3606 thy waysH735, hast thou notH3809 glorifiedH1922:
ThenH116 was the partH6447 of the handH3028 sentH7972 fromH4481 himH6925; and thisH1836 writingH3792 was writtenH7560.
And thisH1836 is the writingH3792 that was writtenH7560, MENEH4484, MENEH4484, TEKELH8625, UPHARSINH6537.
ThisH1836 is the interpretationH6591 of the thingH4406: MENEH4484; GodH426 hath numberedH4483 thy kingdomH4437, and finishedH8000 it.
TEKELH8625; Thou art weighedH8625 in the balancesH3977, and art foundH7912 wantingH2627.
PERESH6537; Thy kingdomH4437 is dividedH6537, and givenH3052 to the MedesH4076 and PersiansH6540.
