Declare God's splendor and cause His praise to be magnificent.

Context

The call to praise becomes more refined: from joyful noise to composed song that glorifies God's character.

What Does Psalms 66:2 Mean?

The psalmist moves beyond noise to song—a more structured form of praise. Singing forth the honour of His name means making His character and majesty audible to others. This is not private worship but public declaration.

To make his praise glorious means to amplify and ornament it, turning praise into something worthy of public notice. The worshipper becomes a herald, making God's worthiness known.
