תהילים סה

For the leader. A psalm of David. A song.

Praise befits You in Zion, O God;
vows are paid to You;

all humankind comes to You,
You who hear prayer.

When all manner of sins overwhelm me,
it is You who forgive our iniquities.

Happy is the one You choose and bring near
to dwell in Your courts;
may we be sated with the blessings of Your house,
Your holy temple.

Answer us with victory through awesome deeds,
O God, our deliverer,
in whom all the ends of the earth
and the distant seas
put their trust;

who by divine power fixed the mountains firmly,
who is girded with might,

who stills the raging seas,
the raging waves,
and tumultuous peoples.

Those who live at the ends of the earth are awed by Your signs;
You make the lands of sunrise and sunset shout for joy.

You take care of the earth and irrigate it;
You enrich it greatly,
with the channel of God full of water;
You provide grain for all;
for so do You prepare it.

Saturating its furrows,
leveling its ridges,
You soften it with showers,
You bless its growth.

You crown the year with Your bounty;
fatness is distilled in Your paths—

the pasturelands distill it;
the hills are girded with joy.

The meadows are clothed with flocks,
the valleys mantled with grain;
they raise a shout, they break into song.
