Psalm 65. Te decet hymnus.
From the
Book of Divine Worship - The Psalter or Psalms of David - Traditional - Twelfth Day - Evening Prayer.
- THOU, O God, art praised in Sion; *
and unto thee shall the vow be performed in Jerusalem.
- Thou that hearest the prayer, *
unto thee shall all flesh come.
- My misdeeds prevail against me: *
O be thou merciful unto our sins.
- Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and receivest unto thee: *
he shall dwell in thy court, and shall be satisfied with the pleasures of thy house, even of thy holy temple.
- Thou shalt show us wonderful things in thy righteousness, O God of our salvation; *
thou that art the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them that remain in the broad sea.
- Who in his strength setteth fast the mountains, *
and is girded about with power.
- Who stilleth the raging of the sea, *
and the noise of his waves, and the madness of the peoples.
- They also that dwell in the uttermost parts of the earth shall be afraid at thy tokens, *
thou that makest the out-goings of the morning and evening to praise thee.
- Thou visitest the earth, and blessest it; *
thou makest it very plenteous.
- The river of God is full of water: *
thou preparest their corn, for so thou providest for the earth.
- Thou waterest her furrows; thou sendest rain into the little valleys thereof; *
thou makest it soft with the drops of rain, and blessest the increase of it.
- Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; *
and thy clouds drop fatness.
- They shall drop upon the dwellings of the wilderness; *
and the little hills shall rejoice on every side.
- The folds shall be full of sheep; *
the valleys also shall stand so thick with corn, that they shall laugh and sing.
