Psalm 65

For the director of music. A psalm of David. A song.

¹Praise awaits you, our God, in Zion;

to you our vows will be fulfilled.

²You who answer prayer,

to you all people will come.

³When we were overwhelmed by sins,

you forgave our transgressions.

⁴Blessed are those you choose

and bring near to live in your courts!

We are filled with the good things of your house,

of your holy temple.

⁵You answer us with awesome and righteous deeds,

God our Savior,

the hope of all the ends of the earth

and of the farthest seas,

⁶who formed the mountains by your power,

having armed yourself with strength,

⁷who stilled the roaring of the seas,

the roaring of their waves,

and the turmoil of the nations.

⁸The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders;

where morning dawns, where evening fades,

you call forth songs of joy.

⁹You care for the land and water it;

you enrich it abundantly.

The streams of God are filled with water

to provide the people with grain,

for so you have ordained it.

¹⁰You drench its furrows and level its ridges;

you soften it with showers and bless its crops.

¹¹You crown the year with your bounty,

and your carts overflow with abundance.

¹²The grasslands of the wilderness overflow;

the hills are clothed with gladness.

¹³The meadows are covered with flocks

and the valleys are mantled with grain;

they shout for joy and sing.
