Chapter 65 |
| 1 | Praise waiteth
for thee, O God, in Sion: 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. |
