Mazmur 66:5

66:5 Come and witness ¹  God’s exploits! ² 

His acts on behalf of people are awesome! ³ 

Mazmur 96:4

96:4 For the Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise;

he is more awesome than all gods. ⁴ 

[66:5]  ¹ tn Or “see.”

[66:5]  ² tn Or “acts” (see Ps 46:8).

[66:5]  ³ tn Heb “awesome [is] an act toward the sons of man.” It is unclear how the prepositional phrase relates to what precedes. If collocated with “act,” it may mean “on behalf of” or “toward.” If taken with “awesome” (see 1 Chr 16:25; Pss 89:7; 96:4; Zeph 2:11), one might translate “his awesome acts are beyond human comprehension” or “his awesome acts are superior to anything men can do.”

[96:4]  ⁴ tn Or perhaps “and feared by all gods.” See Ps 89:7.
