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.

Tehilah ·Praise song· waits for you, God, in Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking]. To you shall vows be performed.

2 Thou hearer of prayer! Unto thee, shall all flesh come.

You who sh'ma ·hear obey· prayer, to you all men will come.

3 Iniquitous things, have been too strong for me, As for our transgressions, wilt, thou, by propitiation remove them.

Sins overwhelmed me, but you atoned for our transgressions.

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 one whom you choose, and cause to come near, that he may live in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, your 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 deeds of righteousness, you answer us, God of our yesha' ·salvation·. You who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, of those who are far away on the sea;

6 Who setteth fast the mountains by his strength, Being girded with might;

Who by his power forms the mountains, having armed yourself with strength;

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 turmoil of the nations.

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 far away places are afraid at your wonders. You call the morning’s dawn and the evening with songs of joy.

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:

You visit the earth, and water it. You greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. You provide them grain, for so you have ordained it.

10 The ridges thereof, drenching, Settling the furrows thereof, With myriad drops, dost thou soften it, The sprouting thereof, doth thou bless.

You drench its furrows. You level its ridges. You soften it with showers. You bless it with a crop.

11 Thou hast set a crown upon thy year of bounty, And, thy tracks, drop fatness;

You crown the year with your bounty. Your carts overflow with abundance.

12 Fruitful are the pastures of the wilderness, And, with exultation, the hills do gird themselves.

The wilderness grasslands overflow. The hills are clothed with gladness.

13 Clothed are the pastures with flocks, The valleys also, cover themselves with corn, They shout for joy, yea they sing.

The pastures are covered with flocks. The valleys also are clothed with grain. They shout for joy! They also sing.
