1.
For the director of music. A psalm of David. A song. Praise awaits you, O God, in Zion; to you our vows will be fulfilled.
|
|
2.
O you who hear prayer, to you all men will come.
|
|
3.
When we were overwhelmed by sins, you forgave our transgressions.
|
|
4.
Blessed are those you choose and bring near to live in your courts! We are filled with the good things of your house, of your holy temple.
|
|
5.
You answer us with awesome deeds of righteousness, O God our Savior, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas,
|
|
6.
who formed the mountains by your power, having armed yourself with strength,
|
|
7.
who stilled the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations.
|
|
8.
Those living far away fear your wonders; where morning dawns and evening fades you call forth songs of joy.
|
|
9.
You care for the land and water it; you enrich it abundantly. The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain, for so you have ordained it.
|
|
10.
You drench its furrows and level its ridges; you soften it with showers and bless its crops.
|
|
11.
You crown the year with your bounty, and your carts overflow with abundance.
|
|
12.
The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness.
|
|
13.
The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing.
