詩篇 65

1 大衛的詩歌，交與伶長。 上帝啊，錫安的人都等候讚美你； 所許的願也要向你償還。

For the leader. A psalm of David. A song. It is seemly to praise you, O God, in Zion, and to you shall the vow be performed in Jerusalem.

2 聽禱告的主啊， 凡有血氣的都要來就你。

O you who hear prayer, unto you shall all flesh come.

3 罪孽勝了我； 至於我們的過犯，你都要赦免。

Our sins are too mighty for us, our transgressions you only can cover them.

4 你所揀選、使他親近你、住在你院中的， 這人便為有福！ 我們必因你居所、你聖殿的美福知足了。

Happy the person who you choose to live beside you in your courts. O may we be filled with the joys of your house, of your holy temple.

5 拯救我們的上帝啊，你必以威嚴秉公義應允我們； 你本是一切地極和海上遠處的人所倚靠的。

In dread deeds you loyally answer us, O God of our salvation, whom all ends of the earth put their trust in, and islands far away.

6 他既以大能束腰， 就用力量安定諸山，

By your strength you establish the hills, you are armed with might;

7 使諸海的響聲和其中波浪的響聲， 並萬民的喧嘩，都平靜了。

you still the roaring of seas, and the turmoil of nations,

8 住在地極的人因你的神蹟懼怕； 你使日出日落之地都歡呼。

so that those who live at earth’s bounds are awed at your signs: the lands of the sunrise and sunset you make to ring with joy.

9 你眷顧地，降下透雨， 使地大得肥美。 上帝的河滿了水； 你這樣澆灌了地， 好為人預備五穀。

You visit and water the earth; you greatly enrich her with the river of God, which is full of water. You prepare the corn thereof,

10 你澆透地的犂溝，潤平犂脊， 降甘霖，使地軟和； 其中發長的，蒙你賜福。

watering her furrows, settling her ridges; you make her soft with showers, and bless what grows thereon.

11 你以恩典為年歲的冠冕； 你的路徑都滴下脂油，

You crown the year with your goodness, your chariot tracks drip with fatness.

12 滴在曠野的草場上。 小山以歡樂束腰；

The desert pastures are lush, the hills greened with joy.

13 草場以羊群為衣； 谷中也長滿了五穀。 這一切都歡呼歌唱。

The meadows are clothed with flocks, the valleys are covered with corn; they shout to each other and sing.
