Psalm 65

New Living Translation NLT

1 What mighty praise, O God, belongs to you in Zion. We will fulfill our vows to you,

2 for you answer our prayers. All of us must come to you.

3 Though we are overwhelmed by our sins, you forgive them all.

4 What joy for those you choose to bring near, those who live in your holy courts. What festivities await us inside your holy Temple.

5 You faithfully answer our prayers with awesome deeds, O God our savior. You are the hope of everyone on earth, even those who sail on distant seas.

6 You formed the mountains by your power and armed yourself with mighty strength.

7 You quieted the raging oceans with their pounding waves and silenced the shouting of the nations.

8 Those who live at the ends of the earth stand in awe of your wonders. From where the sun rises to where it sets, you inspire shouts of joy.

9 You take care of the earth and water it, making it rich and fertile. The river of God has plenty of water; it provides a bountiful harvest of grain, for you have ordered it so.

10 You drench the plowed ground with rain, melting the clods and leveling the ridges. You soften the earth with showers and bless its abundant crops.

11 You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance.

12 The grasslands of the wilderness become a lush pasture, and the hillsides blossom with joy.

13 The meadows are clothed with flocks of sheep, and the valleys are carpeted with grain. They all shout and sing for joy!

Common English Bible CEB

1 God of Zion, to you even silence is praise. Promises made to you are kept—

2 you listen to prayer— and all living things come to you.

3 When wrongdoings become too much for me, you forgive our sins.

4 How happy is the one you choose to bring close, the one who lives in your courtyards! We are filled full by the goodness of your house, by the holiness of your temple.

5 In righteousness you answer us, by your awesome deeds, God of our salvation— you, who are the security of all the far edges of the earth, even the distant seas.

6 You establish the mountains by your strength; you are dressed in raw power.

7 You calm the roaring seas; calm the roaring waves, calm the noise of the nations.

8 Those who dwell on the far edges stand in awe of your acts. You make the gateways of morning and evening sing for joy.

9 You visit the earth and make it abundant, enriching it greatly by God's stream, full of water. You provide people with grain because that is what you've decided.

10 Drenching the earth's furrows, leveling its ridges, you soften it with rain showers; you bless its growth.

11 You crown the year with your goodness; your paths overflow with rich food.

12 Even the desert pastures drip with it, and the hills are dressed in pure joy.

13 The meadowlands are covered with flocks, the valleys decked out in grain— they shout for joy; they break out in song!
