Psalms 65
1 For the chief musician. A psalm. A song of David. For you, God in Zion, our praise waits; our vows will be carried out to you.
For the Leader. A Psalm. A Song of David. Praise waiteth for Thee, O God, in Zion; and unto Thee the vow is performed.
2 You who hear prayer, to you all flesh will come.
O Thou that hearest prayer, unto Thee doth all flesh come.
3 Iniquities prevail against us; as for our transgressions, you will forgive them.
The tale of iniquities is too heavy for me; as for our transgressions, Thou wilt pardon them.
4 Blessed is the man whom you choose to bring near to you so that he may live in your courts. We will be satisfied with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.
Happy is the man whom Thou choosest, and bringest near, that he may dwell in Thy courts; may we be satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, the holy place of Thy temple!
5 In righteousness you will answer us by doing amazing things, God of our salvation; you who are hope of all the ends of the earth and of those who are far across the sea.
With wondrous works dost Thou answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation; Thou the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of the far distant seas;
6 For it is you who made the mountains firm, you who are belted with strength.
Who by Thy strength settest fast the mountains, who art girded about with might;
7 It is you who quiet the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the commotion of the peoples.
Who stillest the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples;
8 Those who live in the uttermost parts of the earth are afraid of the evidence of your deeds; you make the east and the west rejoice.
So that they that dwell in the uttermost parts stand in awe of Thy signs; Thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
9 You come to help the earth; you water it; you greatly enrich it; the river of God is full of water; you provide mankind grain when you have prepared the earth.
Thou hast remembered the earth, and watered her, greatly enriching her, with the river of God that is full of water; Thou preparest them corn, for so preparest Thou her.
10 You water its furrows abundantly; you settle down the furrows' ridges; you make them soft with rain showers; you bless the sprouts between them.
Watering her ridges abundantly, settling down the furrows thereof, Thou makest her soft with showers; Thou blessest the growth thereof.
11 You crown the year with your goodness, and your wagon tracks overflow with abundance.
Thou crownest the year with Thy goodness; and Thy paths drop fatness.
12 The pastures in the wilderness drip with dew, and the hills are clothed with joy.
The pastures of the wilderness do drop; and the hills are girded with joy.
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with grain; they shout for joy, and they sing.
The meadows are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, yea, they sing.
