For the Chief Musician. A Psalm. A Song of David.

1 Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Zion;

And unto thee shall the vow be performed.

2 O thou that hearest prayer,

Unto thee shall all flesh come.

3 Iniquities prevail against me:

As for our transgressions, thou wilt forgive them.

4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee,

That he may dwell in thy courts:

We shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house,

Thy holy temple.

5 By terrible things thou wilt answer us in righteousness,

O God of our salvation,

Thou that art the confidence of all the ends of the earth,

And of them that are afar off upon the sea:

6 Who by his strength setteth fast the mountains,

Being girded about with might;

7 Who stilleth the roaring of the seas,

The roaring of their waves,

And the tumult of the peoples.

8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens:

Thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it,

Thou greatly enrichest it;

The river of God is full of water:

Thou providest them grain, when thou hast so prepared the earth.

10 Thou waterest its furrows abundantly;

Thou settlest the ridges thereof:

Thou makest it soft with showers;

Thou blessest the springing thereof.

11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness;

And thy paths drop fatness.

12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness;

And the hills are girded with joy.

13 The pastures are clothed with flocks;

The valleys also are covered over with grain;

They shout for joy, they also sing.

歌一首，大卫的诗，交给诗班长。 1 　神啊！在锡安城里，

人们都在等候要颂赞你，

他们也要向你偿还所许的愿。

2 听祷告的主啊！

所有的人都要到你面前来。

3 罪孽胜过了我，

但我们的过犯，你都必赦免。

4 你所拣选，使他亲近你，

可以住在你院子中的人，是有福的！

愿我们因你的居所，就是你圣殿的美福心满意足。

5 拯救我们的　神啊！

你必充满威严，按公义应允我们；

你本是一切地极和海洋远处的人所倚靠的。

6 你以大能束腰，

用自己的力量坚立众山。

7 你平息了海洋的洪涛和澎湃的巨浪，

以及万民的喧哗。

8 因此，住在地极的人都因你的神迹起了敬畏的心；

你使日出和日落之地的人都欢呼歌唱。

9 你眷顾大地，普降甘霖，

使地甚为肥沃；

神的河满了水，

好为人预备五谷；

你就这样预备了大地。

10 你灌溉地的犁沟，润平犁脊，

又降雨露使地松软，

并且赐福给地上所生长的。

11 你以恩典为年岁的冠冕，

你的路径都滴下脂油，

12 滴在旷野的草场上；

群山以欢乐束腰，

13 牧场以羊群为衣，

山谷都盖满了五谷；

这一切都欢呼歌唱。
