< Psalms 65 >
1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. A SONG. To You, silence [and] praise, O God, in Zion, And to You a vow is completed.
2 Hearer of prayer, all flesh comes to You.
3 Matters of iniquities were mightier than I, Our transgressions—You cover them.
4 O the blessedness of [him whom] You choose, And draw near, he inhabits Your courts, We are satisfied with the goodness of Your house, Your holy temple.
5 By fearful things in righteousness You answer us, O God of our salvation, The confidence of all far off The ends of the earth and sea.
6 Establishing mountains by His power, He has been girded with might,
7 Restraining the noise of seas, the noise of their billows, And the multitude of the peoples.
8 And the inhabitants of the uttermost parts Are afraid from Your signs, You cause the outgoings of morning and evening to sing.
9 You have inspected the earth, and water it, You make it very rich, the stream of God [is] full of water, You prepare their grain, When thus You prepare it,
10 Its ridges have been filled, Its furrow has been deepened, You soften it with showers, Its springing up You bless.
11 You have crowned the year of Your goodness, And Your paths drop fatness.
12 The pastures of a wilderness drop, And You gird the hills with joy.
13 The meadows are clothed with the flock, And valleys are covered with grain, They shout—indeed, they sing!
