Psalm 65

People everywhere on the earth and beyond the sea trust in You

You made the mountains by Your strength, You are dressed in power.

You stopped the roaring seas, the roaring waves, and the uproar of the nations,

Even those people at the ends of the earth fear your miracles,

You are praised from where the sun rises to where it sets.

You take care of the land and water it;

You make it very fertile.

The rivers of God are full of water.

 

Grain grows because You make it grow.

 

You send rain to the plowed fields; you fill the rows with water

You soften the ground with rain, and then You bless it with crops.

You give the year a good harvest

and you load the wagons with many crops

The desert is covered with grass and the hills with happiness.

The pastures are full of flocks

and the valleys are covered with grain.

Everything shouts and sings for joy.
