65:1 | Praise awaits you, O God, in Zion; to you our vows will be fulfilled. |
65:2 | O you who hear prayer, to you all men will come. |
65:3 | When we were overwhelmed by sins, you forgave our transgressions. |
65:4 | Blessed 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. |
65:5 | You answer us with awesome deeds of righteousness, O God our Savior, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas, |
65:6 | who formed the mountains by your power, having armed yourself with strength, |
65:7 | who stilled the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations. |
65:8 | Those living far away fear your wonders; where morning dawns and evening fades you call forth songs of joy. |
65:9 | You 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. |
65:10 | You drench its furrows and level its ridges; you soften it with showers and bless its crops. |
65:11 | You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance. |
65:12 | The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness. |
65:13 | The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing. |
