1 Praise waiteth for thee in silence, OGod, in Zion; and unto thee shall the vow be performed.

1 It is right for you, O God, to have praise in Zion: to you let the offering be made.

1Unto the end, a canticle of a psalm of the resurrection. Shout with joy to God, all the earth,

2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.

2To you, O hearer of prayer, let the words of all flesh come.

2Sing ye a psalm to his name; give glory to his praise.

3 Iniquities have prevailed against me: our transgressions, thou wilt forgive them.

3Evils have overcome us: but as for our sins, you will take them away.

3Say unto God, How terrible are thy works, O Lord! in the multitude of thy strength thy enemies shall lie to thee.

4 Blessed is he whom thou choosest and causest to approach: he shall dwell in thy courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, of thy holy temple.

4Happy is the man of your selection, to whom you give a resting-place in your house; we will be full of the good things out of your holy place.

4Let all the earth adore thee, and sing to thee: let it sing a psalm to thy name.

5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, OGod of our salvation, thou confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of the distant regions of the sea. ...

5You will give us an answer in righteousness by great acts of power, O God of our salvation; you who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of the far-off lands of the sea;

5Come and see the works of God; who is terrible in his counsels over the sons of men.

6 Who by his strength established the mountains, being girded with power;

6The God by whose strength the mountains are fixed; who is robed with power:

6Who turneth the sea into dry land, in the river they shall pass on foot: there shall we rejoice in him.

7 Who stilleth the raging of the seas, the raging of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples.

7Who makes the loud voice of the sea quiet, and puts an end to the sound of its waves.

7Who by his power ruleth for ever: his eyes behold the nations; let not them that provoke him be exalted in themselves.

8 And they that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens; thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

8Those in the farthest parts of the earth have fear when they see your signs: the outgoings of the morning and evening are glad because of you.

8O bless our God, ye Gentiles: and make the voice of his praise to be heard.

9 Thou hast visited the earth, thou hast watered it; thou greatly enrichest it: the river ofGod is full of water; thou providest their corn, when thou hast so prepared it:

9You have given your blessing to the earth, watering it and making it fertile; the river of God is full of water: and having made it ready, you give men grain.

9Who hath set my soul to live: and hath not suffered my feet to be moved:

10 Thou dost satiate its furrows, thou smoothest its clods, thou makest it soft with showers; thou blessest the springing thereof.

10You make the ploughed lands full of water; you make smooth the slopes: you make the earth soft with showers, sending your blessing on its growth.

10For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us by fire, as silver is tried.

11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness, and thy paths drop fatness:

11The year is crowned with the good you give; life-giving rain is dropping from your footsteps,

11Thou hast brought us into a net, thou hast laid afflictions on our back:

12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness, and the hills are girded with gladness.

12Falling on the grass of the waste land: and the little hills are glad on every side.

12Thou hast set men over our heads. We have passed through fire and water, and thou hast brought us out into a refreshment.

13 The meadows are clothed with flocks, and the valleys are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, yea, they sing.

13The grass-land is thick with flocks; the valleys are full of grain; they give glad cries and songs of joy.

13I will go into thy house with burnt offerings: I will pay thee my vows,
