Psalms 65
1 To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David—a song. Thine, are silence [and] praise, O God, in Zion, —And, to thee, shall be paid the vow.
Praise waits for thee, O God, in Zion. And to thee the vow shall be performed.
2 Thou hearer of prayer! Unto thee, shall all flesh come.
O thou who hear prayer, to thee all flesh shall come.
3 Iniquitous things, have been too strong for me, As for our transgressions, wilt, thou, by propitiation remove them.
Iniquities prevail against me. As for our transgressions, thou will forgive them.
4 How happy the man thou shalt choose and bring near! He shall abide in thy courts, —We shall be satisfied with, The blessing of thy house, The holiness of thy temple.
Blessed is the man whom thou choose and cause to approach, that he may dwell in thy courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, thy holy temple.
5 By things reverend in righteousness, wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation, The confidence of all the ends of the earth, And of the sea far away;
By awesome things thou will answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation, thou who are the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of those who are afar off upon the sea,
6 Who setteth fast the mountains by his strength, Being girded with might;
who by his strength sets firm the mountains, being girded about with might,
7 Who stilleth, The noise of the seas, The noise of their rolling waves, and The tumult of races of men?
who stills the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples.
8 Yea the dwellers in the uttermost parts have feared at thy tokens, The goings forth of morning and evening, thou causest to shout for joy.
They also who dwell in the outermost parts are afraid at thy signs. Thou make the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
9 Thou hast visited the earth, and made it abound, Abundantly, dost thou enrich it—The channel of God, is full of waters, Thou preparest their corn, Yea, thus, dost thou prepare it:
Thou visit the earth, and water it; thou greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. Thou provide them grain when thou have so prepared the earth.
10 The ridges thereof, drenching, Settling the furrows thereof, With myriad drops, dost thou soften it, The sprouting thereof, doth thou bless.
Thou water its furrows abundantly. Thou settle the ridges of it. Thou make it soft with showers. Thou bless the springing of it.
11 Thou hast set a crown upon thy year of bounty, And, thy tracks, drop fatness;
Thou crown the year with thy goodness, and thy paths drop fatness.
12 Fruitful are the pastures of the wilderness, And, with exultation, the hills do gird themselves.
They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness, and the hills are girded with joy.
13 Clothed are the pastures with flocks, The valleys also, cover themselves with corn, They shout for joy, yea they sing.
The pastures are clothed with flocks. The valleys also are covered over with grain. They shout for joy; they also sing.
