Psalm 65. Te decet hymnus.
THOU, O God, art praised in Sion; * and unto thee shall the vow
be performed in Jerusalem.
2 Thou that hearest the prayer, * unto thee shall all flesh come.
3 My misdeeds prevail against me: * O be thou merciful unto our
sins.
4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and receivest unto thee:
* he shall dwell in thy court, and shall be satisfied with the
pleasures of thy house, even of thy holy temple.
5 Thou shalt show us wonderful things in thy righteousness, O
God of our salvation; * thou that art the hope of all the ends
of the earth, and of them that remain in the broad sea.
6 Who in his strength setteth fast the mountains, * and is girded
about with power.
7 Who stilleth the raging of the sea, * and the noise of his
waves, and the madness of the peoples.
8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts of the earth shall
be afraid at thy tokens, * thou that makest the out-goings of
the morning and evening to praise thee.
9 Thou visitest the earth, and blessest it; * thou makest it
very plenteous.
10 The river of God is full of water: * thou preparest their
corn, for so thou providest for the earth.
11 Thou waterest her furrows; thou sendest rain into the little
valleys thereof; * thou makest it soft with the drops of rain,
and blessest the increase of it.
12 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; * and thy clouds
drop fatness.
13 They shall drop upon the dwellings of the wilderness; * and
the little hills shall rejoice on every side.
14 The folds shall be full of sheep; * the valleys also shall
stand so thick with corn, that they shall laugh and sing.
