Psalm 65 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

God’s Abundant Favor to Earth and Man.

Psa 65:1

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

To You belongs silence [the submissive wonder of reverence], and [it bursts into] praise in Zion, O God;

And to You the vow shall be performed.

Psa 65:2

O You who hear prayer,

To You all mankind comes.

Psa 65:3

Wickedness and guilt prevail against me;

Yet as for our transgressions,

You forgive them [removing them from Your sight].

Psa 65:4

Blessed is the one whom You choose and bring near

To dwell in Your courts.

We will be filled with the goodness of Your house,

Your holy temple.

Psa 65:5

By awesome and wondrous things You answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation,

You who are the trust and hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest sea;

Psa 65:6

Who creates the mountains by His strength,

Being clothed with power,

Psa 65:7

Who stills the roaring of the seas,

The roaring of their waves,

And the tumult of the peoples,

Psa 65:8

So they who dwell at the ends of the earth stand in awe of Your signs [the evidence of Your presence].

You make the dawn and the sunset shout for joy.

Psa 65:9

You visit the earth and make it overflow [with water];

You greatly enrich it;

The stream of God is full of water;

You provide their grain, when You have prepared the earth.

Psa 65:10

You water its furrows abundantly,

You smooth its ridges;

You soften it with showers,

You bless its growth.

Psa 65:11

You crown the year with Your bounty,

And Your paths overflow.

Psa 65:12

The pastures of the wilderness drip [with dew],

And the hills are encircled with joy.

Psa 65:13

The meadows are clothed with flocks

And the valleys are covered with grain;

They shout for joy and they sing.
