| Chapter 65 |
1 |
To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David. A Song. To Thee, silence -- praise, O God, [is] in Zion, And to Thee is a vow completed. -
|
2 |
Hearer of prayer, to Thee all flesh cometh. -
|
3 |
Matters of iniquities were mightier than I, Our transgressions -- Thou dost cover them. -
|
4 |
O the happiness of [him whom] Thou choosest, And drawest near, he inhabiteth Thy courts, We are satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, Thy holy temple. -
|
5 |
By fearful things in righteousness Thou answerest us, O God of our salvation, The confidence of all far off ends of earth and sea. -
|
6 |
Establishing mountains by His power, He hath been girded with might, -
|
7 |
Restraining the noise of seas, the noise of their billows, And the multitude of the peoples. -
|
8 |
And the inhabitants of the uttermost parts From Thy signs are afraid, The outgoings of morning and evening Thou causest to sing. -
|
9 |
Thou hast inspected the earth, and waterest it, Thou makest it very rich, the rivulet of God [is] full of water, Thou preparest their corn, When thus Thou dost prepare it, -
|
10 |
Its ridges have been filled, Deepened hath been its furrow, With showers Thou dost soften it, Its springing up Thou blessest. -
|
11 |
Thou hast crowned the year of Thy goodness, And Thy paths drop fatness. -
|
12 |
Drop do the pastures of a wilderness, And joy of the heights Thou girdest on. -
|
13 |
Clothed have lambs the flock, And valleys are covered with corn, They shout -- yea, they sing! -
