Psalms 65
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm. A Song of David. Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Zion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.
For the end, a Psalm [and] Song of David. Praise becomes thee, O God, in Sion; and to thee shall the vow be performed.
2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.
Hear my prayer; to thee all flesh shall come.
3 Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.
The words of transgressors have overpowered us; but do thou pardon our sins.
4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach [unto thee], that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, the holy place of thy temple.
Blessed [is he] whom thou hast chosen and adopted; he shall dwell in thy courts; we shall be filled with the good things of thy house; thy temple is holy.
5 By terrible things thou wilt answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation; thou that art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:
[Thou art] wonderful in righteousness. Hearken to us, O God our Saviour; the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them [that are] on the sea afar off:
6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded about with might:
who dost establish the mountains in thy strength, being girded about with power;
7 Which stilleth the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples.
who troublest the depth of the sea, the sounds of its waves.
8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
The nations shall be troubled, and they that inhabit the ends [of the earth] shall be afraid of thy signs; thou wilt cause the outgoings of morning and evening to rejoice.
9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it, thou greatly enrichest it; the river of God is full of water: thou providest them corn, when thou hast so prepared the earth.
Thou hast visited the earth, and saturated it; thou hast abundantly enriched it. The river of God is filled with water; thou hast prepared their food, for thus is the preparation [of it].
10 Thou waterest her furrows abundantly; thou settlest the ridges thereof: thou makest it soft with showers; thou blessest the springing thereof.
Saturate her furrows, multiply her fruits; [the crop] springing up shall rejoice in its drops.
11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.
Thou wilt bless the crown of the year [because] of thy goodness; and thy plains shall be filled with fatness.
12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the hills are girded with joy.
The mountains of the wilderness shall be enriched; and the hills shall gird themselves with joy.
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.
The rams of the flock are clothed [with wool], and the valleys shall abound in corn; they shall cry aloud, yea they shall sing hymns.
