< Psalms 65 >

1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme or song of David. O God, praise waiteth for thee in Zion, and vnto thee shall the vowe be perfourmed.
For the Leader. A Psalm. A Song of David. Praise waiteth for Thee, O God, in Zion; and unto Thee the vow is performed.
2 Because thou hearest the prayer, vnto thee shall all flesh come.
O Thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee doth all flesh come.
3 Wicked deedes haue preuailed against me: but thou wilt be mercifull vnto our transgressions.
The tale of iniquities is too heavy for me; as for our transgressions, Thou wilt pardon them.
4 Blessed is he, whom thou chusest and causest to come to thee: he shall dwell in thy courtes, and we shall be satisfied with the pleasures of thine House, euen of thine holy Temple.
Happy is the man whom Thou choosest, and bringest near, that he may dwell in Thy courts; may we be satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, the holy place of Thy temple!
5 O God of our saluation, thou wilt answere vs with fearefull signes in thy righteousnes, O thou the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are farre off in the sea.
With wondrous works dost Thou answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation; Thou the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of the far distant seas;
6 He stablisheth the mountaines by his power: and is girded about with strength.
Who by Thy strength settest fast the mountains, who art girded about with might;
7 He appeaseth the noyse of the seas and the noyse of the waues thereof, and the tumults of the people.
Who stillest the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples;
8 They also, that dwell in the vttermost parts of the earth, shalbe afraide of thy signes: thou shalt make the East and the West to reioyce.
So that they that dwell in the uttermost parts stand in awe of Thy signs; Thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou makest it very riche: the Riuer of God is full of water: thou preparest them corne: for so thou appointest it.
Thou hast remembered the earth, and watered her, greatly enriching her, with the river of God that is full of water; Thou preparest them corn, for so preparest Thou her.
10 Thou waterest abundantly the furrowes thereof: thou causest the raine to descende into the valleies thereof: thou makest it soft with showres, and blessest the bud thereof.
Watering her ridges abundantly, settling down the furrows thereof, Thou makest her soft with showers; Thou blessest the growth thereof.
11 Thou crownest ye yeere with thy goodnesse, and thy steppes droppe fatnesse.
Thou crownest the year with Thy goodness; and Thy paths drop fatness.
12 They drop vpon the pastures of the wildernesse: and the hils shalbe compassed with gladnes.
The pastures of the wilderness do drop; and the hills are girded with joy.
13 The pastures are clad with sheepe: the valleis also shalbe couered with corne: therefore they shoute for ioye, and sing.
The meadows are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, yea, they sing.
