Psalms 65
1 For the Leader. A Psalm. A Song of David. Praise waiteth for Thee, O God, in Zion; and unto Thee the vow is 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 doth all flesh come.
O Thou that hearest prayer! To thee shall all flesh come!
3 The tale of iniquities is too heavy for me; as for our transgressions, Thou wilt pardon them.
My iniquities are heavy upon me; But thou wilt forgive our transgressions!
4 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!
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 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;
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 Thy strength settest fast the mountains, who art girded about with might;
Thou makest fast the mountains by thy power, Being girded with strength!
7 Who stillest the roaring of the seas, the roaring 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 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.
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 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.
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 Watering her ridges abundantly, settling down the furrows thereof, Thou makest her soft with showers; Thou blessest the growth 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 The pastures of the wilderness do drop; and the hills are girded with joy.
They drop it upon the pastures of the wilderness, And the hills are girded with gladness.
13 The meadows are clothed with flocks; the valleys also 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.
