For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A song. Praise awaits You, O God, in Zion; to You our vows will be fulfilled. |
|
2
|
O You who listen to prayer, all people will come to You. |
|
3
|
When iniquities prevail against me, You atone for our transgressions. |
|
4
|
Blessed is the one You choose and bring near to dwell in Your courts! We are filled with the goodness of Your house, the holiness of Your temple. |
|
5
|
With awesome deeds of righteousness You answer us, O God of our salvation, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas. |
|
6
|
You formed the mountains by Your power, having girded Yourself with might. |
|
7
|
You stilled the roaring of the seas, the pounding of their waves, and the tumult of the nations. |
|
8
|
Those who live far away fear Your wonders; You make the dawn and sunset shout for joy. |
|
9
|
You attend to the earth and water it; with abundance You enrich it. The streams of God are full of water, for You prepare our grain by providing for the earth. |
|
10
|
You soak its furrows and level its ridges; You soften it with showers and bless its growth. |
|
11
|
You crown the year with Your bounty, and Your paths overflow with plenty. |
|
12
|
The pastures of the wilderness overflow; the hills are robed with joy. |
|
13
|
The pastures are clothed with flocks, and the valleys are decked with grain. They shout in triumph; indeed, they sing. |
