11 Tú coronas el año de tus bienes; y tus nubes destilan grosura.

Psalm 65:11 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 65:11

Thou crownest the year with thy goodness
The whole circling year, from one end of it to the other; particularly that season of it when the harvest is gathered in; the seed being sown, the earth watered, the springing of it blessed, and the corn brought to perfection, the year is crowned with a plentiful harvest: this may denote the acceptable year of the Lord, the year of the redeemed, the whole Gospel dispensation, ( Isaiah 61:2 ) ( 63:4 ) ; in certain seasons and periods of which there have been great gatherings of souls to Christ; at the first of it multitudes were converted in Judea, and in the Gentile world, which were the first fruits of the Spirit; and in all ages there have been more or less instances of this kind; and in the latter day there will be a large harvest, when the Jews will be converted, and the fulness of the Gentiles brought in;

and thy paths drop fatness;
the heavens, as Jarchi interprets it; or the clouds, as Kimchi; which are the chariots and horses of God, in which he rides, and are the dust of his feet, ( Psalms 104:3 ) ( Habakkuk 3:15 ) ( Nahum 1:3 ) ; and these drop down rain upon the earth, and make it fat and flourishing; and may mystically design the administration of the Gospel, and the administration of ordinances; which are the paths in which the Lord goes forth to his people, and directs them to walk in, and in which he meets them with a fulness of blessings, and satisfies them as with marrow and fatness.

Psalm 65:11 In-Context

9 Visitas la tierra, y desde que la has hecho desear mucho, la enriqueces con el Río de Dios lleno de aguas; preparas el grano de ellos, porque así la ordenaste.

10 Embriagas sus surcos, haces descender el agua en sus regaderas; la ablandas con lluvias, bendices sus renuevos.

11 Tú coronas el año de tus bienes; y tus nubes destilan grosura.

12 Destilan sobre las habitaciones del desierto; y los collados se ciñen de alegría.

13 Se visten los llanos de ovejas, y los valles se cubren de grano; dan voces de júbilo, y aun cantan.
