Psalms 65:1-8 ▼

1 For the choir director. A psalm of David. A song. Praise is rightfully yours, God, in Zion; vows to you will be fulfilled.

2 All humanity will come to you, the one who hears prayer.

3 Iniquities overwhelm me; only you can atone for our rebellions.

4 How happy is the one you choose and bring near to live in your courts! We will be satisfied with the goodness of your house, the holiness of your temple.

5 You answer us in righteousness, with awe-inspiring works, God of our salvation, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the distant seas.

6 You establish the mountains by your power; you are robed with strength.

7 You silence the roar of the seas, the roar of their waves, and the tumult of the nations.

8 Those who live far away are awed by your signs; you make east and west shout for joy.
