O God of Our Salvation
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A Song.
1Praise #Ps. 62:1 is due to you,#65:1 Or Praise waits for you in silence O God, in Zion,
and to you shall #See Ps. 50:14vows be performed.
2O you who #2 Kgs. 19:20 hear prayer,
to you #See Ps. 86:9shall all flesh come.
3When #See Ps. 38:4 iniquities prevail against me,
you #Ps. 79:9; Isa. 6:7; See Ps. 51:2atone for our transgressions.
4 # [Ps. 33:12] Blessed is the one you choose and bring near,
to #Ps. 84:4; See Ps. 27:4 dwell in your courts!
We shall be #See Ps. 16:11satisfied with the goodness of your house,
the holiness of your temple!
5By #Ps. 45:4; 106:22; Deut. 10:21; 2 Sam. 7:23; [Rev. 15:3] awesome deeds you answer us with righteousness,
O God of our salvation,
the hope of all #See Ps. 22:27the ends of the earth
and of the farthest seas;
6the one who by his strength established the mountains,
being #Ps. 93:1girded with might;
7who #Ps. 89:9; 93:3, 4; 107:29; Matt. 8:26; [Jer. 5:22] stills the roaring of the seas,
the roaring of their waves,
#
Ps. 74:23; Isa. 17:12, 13 the tumult of the peoples,
8so that those who dwell at the ends of the earth are in awe at your signs.
You make the going out of the morning and the evening to shout for joy.
9You visit the earth and #Ps. 68:9; 72:6; Lev. 26:4; See Job 5:10 water it;#65:9 Or and make it overflow
you greatly enrich it;
# [Ps. 46:4] the river of God is full of water;
# [Ps. 147:14] you provide their grain,
for so you have prepared it.
10You water its furrows abundantly,
settling its ridges,
softening it with #Deut. 32:2showers,
and blessing its growth.
11You crown the year with your bounty;
your wagon tracks #Job 36:28overflow with abundance.
12 #
Joel 2:22; [Job 38:26, 27] The pastures of the wilderness overflow,
the hills #Isa. 55:12gird themselves with joy,
13 #
Isa. 30:23 the meadows clothe themselves with flocks,
the valleys deck themselves with grain,
they #Ps. 98:8; [Isa. 44:23]shout and sing together for joy.

Psalm 65
For the music leader. A psalm of David. A song.
1God of Zion, to you even silence is praise.
Promises made to you are kept—
2you listen to prayer—
and all living things come to you.
3When wrongdoings become too much for me,
you forgive our sins.
4How happy is the one you choose to bring close,
the one who lives in your courtyards!
We are filled full by the goodness of your house,
by the holiness of your temple.
5In righteousness you answer us,
by your awesome deeds,
God of our salvation—
you, who are the security
of all the far edges of the earth,
even the distant seas.
6You establish the mountains by your strength;
you are dressed in raw power.
7You calm the roaring seas;
calm the roaring waves,
calm the noise of the nations.
8Those who dwell on the far edges
stand in awe of your acts.
You make the gateways
of morning and evening sing for joy.
9You visit the earth and make it abundant,
enriching it greatly
by God’s stream, full of water.
You provide people with grain
because that is what you’ve decided.
10Drenching the earth’s furrows,
leveling its ridges,
you soften it with rain showers;
you bless its growth.
11You crown the year with your goodness;
your paths overflow with rich food.
12Even the desert pastures drip with it,
and the hills are dressed in pure joy.
13The meadowlands are covered with flocks,
the valleys decked out in grain—
they shout for joy;
they break out in song!
