Psalm 64 — The Holy Bible

For the End; a psalm by David; an ode; sung by Jeremiah and Ezekiel regarding the situation of the sojourners, when they were about to depart.

It is fitting to sing a hymn to You in Zion, O God,

And a vow shall be rendered to You in Jerusalem.

Hear my prayer;

To You all flesh shall come.

The words of lawless men overpowered us,

And You will show mercy to our ungodliness.

Blessed is he whom You choose and help;

He shall dwell in Your courts.

We shall be filled with the good things of Your house;

Holy is Your temple, wondrous in righteousness.

Hear us, O God our savior,

The hope of all the ends of earth

And of those far off at sea,

He who prepares mountains in His strength,

Who is girded with power,

Who troubles the depth of the sea,

The sounds of its waves.

The nations shall be troubled,

And those who inhabit the ends of the earth

Shall be afraid because of Your signs;

You shall gladden the outgoings of morning and evening.

You visited the earth and watered it;

You enriched it abundantly;

The river of God is filled with waters;

You prepared their food, for thus is Your preparation thereof.

Water its furrows; multiply its fruits;

With its raindrops the earth will be gladdened when it produces fruits.

You will bless the crown of the year with Your goodness,

And Your fields will be filled with fatness;

The desert fruits will be made fat,

And the hills will be girded with rejoicing.

The rams of the sheep are clothed with wool,

And the valleys shall abound in wheat;

They will shout and truly sing hymns.
