Psalms 65
1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David: a Song. Praise waiteth for thee in silence, O God, in Zion; and unto thee shall the vow be performed.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” To thee belongeth trust, to thee praise, O God in Zion! And to thee shall the vow be performed!
2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.
O Thou that hearest prayer! To thee shall all flesh come!
3 Iniquities have prevailed against me: our transgressions, thou wilt forgive them.
My iniquities are heavy upon me; But thou wilt forgive our transgressions!
4 Blessed is he whom thou choosest and causest to approach: he shall dwell in thy courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, of thy holy temple.
Happy is he whom thou choosest, And bringest near thee to dwell in thy courts! May we be satisfied with the blessings of thy house, Thy holy temple!
5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation, thou confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of the distant regions of the sea. ...
By wonderful deeds dost thou answer us in thy goodness, O God, our salvation! Who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, And of the most distant seas!
6 Who by his strength established the mountains, being girded with power;
Thou makest fast the mountains by thy power, Being girded with strength!
7 Who stilleth the raging of the seas, the raging of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples.
Thou stillest the roar of the sea, The roar of its waves, And the tumult of the nations.
8 And they that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens; thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
They who dwell in the ends of the earth are awed by thy signs; Thou makest the outgoings of the morning and of the evening to rejoice!
9 Thou hast visited the earth, thou hast watered it; thou greatly enrichest it: the river of God is full of water; thou providest their corn, when thou hast so prepared it:
Thou visitest the earth and waterest it; Thou enrichest it exceedingly; The river of God is full of water. Thou suppliest the earth with corn, When thou hast thus prepared it.
10 Thou dost satiate its furrows, thou smoothest its clods, thou makest it soft with showers; thou blessest the springing thereof.
Thou waterest its furrows, And breakest down its ridges; Thou makest it soft with showers, And blessest its increase.
11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness, and thy paths drop fatness:
Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; Thy footsteps drop fruitfulness;
12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness, and the hills are girded with gladness.
They drop it upon the pastures of the wilderness, And the hills are girded with gladness.
13 The meadows are clothed with flocks, and the valleys are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, yea, they sing.
The pastures are clothed with flocks, And the valleys are covered with corn; They shout, yea, they sing for joy.
