To the Overseer.—A Psalm of David. A Song. To Thee, silence—praise, O God, [is] in Zion, And to Thee is a vow completed. |
2
|
Hearer of prayer, to Thee all flesh cometh. |
3
|
Matters of iniquities were mightier than I, Our transgressions—Thou dost cover them. |
4
|
O the happiness of [him whom] Thou choosest, And drawest near, he inhabiteth Thy courts, We are satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, Thy holy temple. |
5
|
By fearful things in righteousness Thou answerest us, O God of our salvation, The confidence of all far off ends of earth and sea. |
6
|
Establishing mountains by His power, He hath been girded with might, |
7
|
Restraining the noise of seas, the noise of their billows, And the multitude of the peoples. |
8
|
And the inhabitants of the uttermost parts From Thy signs are afraid, The outgoings of morning and evening Thou causest to sing. |
9
|
Thou hast inspected the earth, and waterest it, Thou makest it very rich, the rivulet of God [is] full of water, Thou preparest their corn, When thus Thou dost prepare it, |
10
|
Its ridges have been filled, Deepened hath been its furrow, With showers Thou dost soften it, Its springing up Thou blessest. |
11
|
Thou hast crowned the year of Thy goodness, And Thy paths drop fatness. |
12
|
Drop do the pastures of a wilderness, And joy of the heights Thou girdest on. |
13
|
Clothed have lambs the flock, And valleys are covered with corn, They shout—yea, they sing! |
