1 Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: 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 shalt purge them away.
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, even of thy holy temple.
5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:
6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:
7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.
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 with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.
10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows 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 little hills rejoice on every side.
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.
1 Vir die musiekleier. 'n Psalm van Dawid. 'n Lied.
2 Aan U kom 'n lofsang toe, o God, in Sion, en aan U moet die gelofte betaal word.
3 o Hoorder van die gebed, tot U moet alle vlees kom!
4 Ongeregtige dinge het die oorhand oor my gehad, maar U versoen ons oortredinge.
5 Welgeluksalig is hy wat U uitkies en laat nader kom, dat hy kan woon in u voorhowe. Ons wil versadig word met die goeie van u huis, die heiligheid van u paleis.
6 Vreeslike dinge antwoord U ons in geregtigheid, o God van ons heil, vertroue van al die eindes van die aarde en van die verste see!
7 Wat die berge grondves deur u krag, wat omgord is met mag,
8 wat die gebruis van die seë stilmaak, die gebruis van hulle golwe en die rumoer van die volke;
9 sodat die bewoners van die eindes vrees vir u tekens; U laat die uitgange van die môre en die aand jubel.
10 U het die land besoek en oorvloed gegee; U verryk dit grootliks; die stroom van God is vol water. U berei hulle koring; ja, so berei U die land.
11 U maak sy vore nat, sy kluite gelyk; deur reënbuie maak U dit week; U seën sy uitspruitsel.
12 U kroon die jaar van u goedheid, en u voetspore drup van vettigheid.
13 Die weivelde van die woestyn drup, en die heuwels gord hulleself met gejuig. [ (Psalms 65:14) Die weivelde is bekleed met troppe kleinvee, en die dale is bedek met koring; hulle juig, ook sing hulle. ]
