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.

Psalms 65
65
PSALM 65.
1Unto the end, a canticle of a psalm of the resurrection. Shout with joy to God, all the earth,
2sing ye a psalm to his name; give glory to his praise.
3Say unto God, How terrible are thy works, O Lord! in the multitude of thy strength thy enemies shall lie to thee.
4Let all the earth adore thee, and sing to thee: let it sing a psalm to thy name.
5Come and see the works of God; who is terrible in his counsels over the sons of men.
6Who turneth the sea into dry land, in the river they shall pass on foot: there shall we rejoice in him.
7Who by his power ruleth for ever: his eyes behold the nations; let not them that provoke him he exalted in themselves.
8O bless our God, ye Gentiles: and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9Who hath set my soul to live: and hath not suffered my feet to be moved:
10For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us by fire, as silver is tried.
11Thou hast brought us into a net, thou hast laid afflictions on our back:
12thou hast set men over our heads. We have passed through tire and water, and thou hast brought us out into a refreshment.
13I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
14which my lips have uttered, And my mouth hath spoken, when I was in trouble.
15I will offer up to thee holocausts full of marrow, with burnt offerings of rams: I will offer to thee bullocks with goats.
16Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will tell you what great things he hath done for my soul.
17I cried to him with my mouth: and I extolled him with my tongue.
18If I have looked at iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.
19Therefore hath God heard me, and hath attended to the voice of my supplication.
20Blessed be God, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
