The Book of Psalms, Chapter 65
|
| 1 |
Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the
vow be performed.
|
| 2 |
O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.
|
| 3 |
Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou
shalt purge them away.
|
| 4 |
Blessed 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, even of thy holy temple.
|
| 5 |
By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of
our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth,
and of them that are afar off upon the sea:
|
| 6 |
Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded
with power:
|
| 7 |
Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves,
and the tumult of the people.
|
| 8 |
They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy
tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to
rejoice.
|
| 9 |
Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest
it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them
corn, when thou hast so provided for it.
|
| 10 |
Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the
furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the
springing thereof.
|
| 11 |
Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop
fatness.
|
| 12 |
They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little
hills rejoice on every side.
|
| 13 |
The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are
covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.
