Psalms 65

1 For the music director. A psalm of David. A song. God, you deserve to be praised, and in Zion we will keep our promises to you.

ああ神よさんびはシオンにて汝をまつ 人はみまへにて誓をはたさん

2 You hear our prayers; everyone comes to you.

祈をききたまふものよ諸人こぞりて汝にきたらん

3 Even though we're drowning in our sins and our disobedience, you forgive us.

不義のことば我にかてり なんぢ我儕のもろもろの愆をきよめたまはん

4 Happy are those you choose to keep close to you, those who live in your courts! We are delighted with the blessings we receive in your house, your holy Temple!

汝にえらばれ汝にちかづけられて大庭にすまふ者はさいはひなり われらはなんぢの家なんぢの宮のきよき處のめぐみにて飽ことをえん

5 In your goodness you answer us through the wonderful things you do, God of our salvation. You can be trusted by everyone on earth, including those sailing distant oceans.

われらが救のかみよ 地と海とのもろもろの極なるきはめて遠ものの恃とするなんぢは公義によりて畏るべきことをもて我儕にこたへたまはん

6 You made the mountains by your power, for you have great strength.

かみは大能をおび その權力によりてもろもろの山をかたくたたしめ

7 You calm the raging seas and crashing waves, you silence the noisy shouts of the nations.

海のひびき狂瀾のひびき もろもろの民のかしがましきを鎮めたまへり

8 Everyone, even those in distant lands, are amazed by the wonderful things you do, from the east to the west they sing for joy.

されば極遠にすめる人々もなんぢのくさぐさの豫兆をみておそる なんぢ朝夕のいづる處をよろこび謳はしめたまふ

9 You care for the earth and water it; you make it very productive. God, your river is full of water to grow the grain—this is what you have planned.

なんぢ地にのぞみて漑そぎおほいに之をゆたかにしたまへり 神のかはに水みちたり なんぢ如此そなへをなして穀物をかれらにあたへたまへり

10 You fill the ploughed furrows with water, you soften the ridges; you bless the growing crops.

なんぢ畎をおほいにうるほし畝をたひらにし白雨にてこれをやはらかにし その萌芽るを祝し

11 You make the high point of the year a wonderful harvest, filling the wagons with good things.

また恩惠をもて年の冕弁としたまへり なんぢの途には膏したたれり

12 The pastures in the wilderness grow lush; the hillsides are clothed in bright flowers.

その恩滴は野の牧場をうるほし小山はみな歓びにかこまる

13 The meadows are covered with flocks of sheep, and the valleys with fields of grain. Everything triumphantly sings for joy.

牧場はみな羊のむれを衣もろもろの谷は穀物におほはれたり かれらは皆よろこびてよばはりまた謳ふ
