Praise to God for His Salvation and Providence

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. A Song.

65 Praise is awaiting You, O God, in Zion;And to You the vow shall be performed.² O You who hear prayer,To You all flesh will come.³ Iniquities prevail against me;As for our transgressions,You will provide atonement for them.

⁴ Blessed is the man You choose,And cause to approach You,That he may dwell in Your courts.We shall be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,Of Your holy temple.

⁵ By awesome deeds in righteousness You will answer us,O God of our salvation,You who are the confidence of all the ends of the earth,And of the far-off seas;⁶ Who established the mountains by His strength,Being clothed with power;⁷ You who still the noise of the seas,The noise of their waves,And the tumult of the peoples.⁸ They also who dwell in the farthest parts are afraid of Your signs;You make the outgoings of the morning and evening rejoice.

⁹ You visit the earth and water it,You greatly enrich it;The river of God is full of water;You provide their grain,For so You have prepared it.¹⁰ You water its ridges abundantly,You settle its furrows;You make it soft with showers,You bless its growth.

¹¹ You crown the year with Your goodness,And Your paths drip with abundance.¹² They drop on 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 with grain;They shout for joy, they also sing.
