Psalms 65
65
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm. A Song of David.
1Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Zion:
And unto thee shall the vow be performed.
2O thou that hearest prayer,
Unto thee shall all flesh come.
3Iniquities prevail against me:
As for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.
4Blessed 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.
5By 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:
6Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains;
Being girded about with might:
7Which stilleth the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves,
And the tumult of the peoples.
8They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens:
Thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
9Thou 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.
10Thou waterest her furrows abundantly;
Thou settlest the ridges thereof:
Thou makest it soft with showers;
Thou blessest the springing thereof.
11Thou crownest the year with thy goodness;
And thy paths drop fatness.
12They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness:
And the hills are girded with joy.
13The pastures are clothed with flocks;
The valleys also are covered over with corn;
They shout for joy, they also sing.

Psalms 65
65
Psalm 65
For the choir director; a psalm by David; a song.
1You are praised with silence in Zion, O God,
and vows ⌞made⌟ to you must be kept.
2You are the one who hears prayers.
Everyone will come to you.
3Various sins overwhelm me.
You are the one who forgives our rebellious acts.
4Blessed is the person you choose
and invite to live with you in your courtyards.
We will be filled with good food from your house,
from your holy temple.
5You answer us with awe-inspiring acts ⌞done⌟ in righteousness,
O God, our savior,
the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the most distant sea,
6the one who set the mountains in place with his strength,
the one who is clothed with power,
7the one who calms the roar of the seas,
their crashing waves,
and the uproar of the nations.
8Those who live at the ends of the earth are in awe of your miraculous signs.
The lands of the morning sunrise and evening sunset sing joyfully.
9You take care of the earth, and you water it.
You make it much richer than it was.
(The river of God is filled with water.)
You provide grain for them.
Indeed, you even prepare the ground.
10You drench plowed fields ⌞with rain⌟
and level their clumps of soil.
You soften them with showers
and bless what grows in them.
11You crown the year with your goodness,
and richness overflows wherever you are.
12The pastures in the desert overflow ⌞with richness⌟.
The hills are surrounded with joy.
13The pastures are covered with flocks.
The valleys are carpeted with grain.
All of them shout triumphantly. Indeed, they sing.
