1 | A Psalm [and] Song of David.> 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. |
