65
To the chief Musician, A Psalm and Song of David. 
 
1 Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Zion:  
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.
