God, praise awaits you in Zion

1
To him that excelleth. A Psalme or song of David. O God, praise waiteth for thee in Zion, and vnto thee shall the vowe be perfourmed.
2
Because thou hearest the prayer, vnto thee shall all flesh come.
3
Wicked deedes haue preuailed against me: but thou wilt be mercifull vnto our transgressions.
4
Blessed is he, whom thou chusest and causest to come to thee: he shall dwell in thy courtes, and we shall be satisfied with the pleasures of thine House, euen of thine holy Temple.
5
O God of our saluation, thou wilt answere vs with fearefull signes in thy righteousnes, O thou the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are farre off in the sea.
6
He stablisheth the mountaines by his power: and is girded about with strength.
7
He appeaseth the noyse of the seas and the noyse of the waues thereof, and the tumults of the people.
8
They also, that dwell in the vttermost parts of the earth, shalbe afraide of thy signes: thou shalt make the East and the West to reioyce.
9
Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou makest it very riche: the Riuer of God is full of water: thou preparest them corne: for so thou appointest it.
10
Thou waterest abundantly the furrowes thereof: thou causest the raine to descende into the valleies thereof: thou makest it soft with showres, and blessest the bud thereof.
11
Thou crownest ye yeere with thy goodnesse, and thy steppes droppe fatnesse.
12
They drop vpon the pastures of the wildernesse: and the hils shalbe compassed with gladnes.
13
The pastures are clad with sheepe: the valleis also shalbe couered with corne: therefore they shoute for ioye, and sing.

God, praise awaits you in Zion

1
Praise waits for you, God, in Zion. Vows shall be performed to you.
2
You who hear prayer, all men will come to you.
3
Sins overwhelmed me, but you atoned for our transgressions.
4
Blessed is the one whom you choose and cause to come near, that he may live in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.
5
By awesome deeds of righteousness, you answer us, God of our salvation. You who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, of those who are far away on the sea.
6
By your power, you form the mountains, having armed yourself with strength.
7
You still the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations.
8
They also who dwell in faraway places are afraid at your wonders. You call the morning’s dawn and the evening with songs of joy.
9
You visit the earth, and water it. You greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. You provide them grain, for so you have ordained it.
10
You drench its furrows. You level its ridges. You soften it with showers. You bless it with a crop.
11
You crown the year with your bounty. Your carts overflow with abundance.
12
The wilderness grasslands overflow. The hills are clothed with gladness.
13
The pastures are covered with flocks. The valleys also are clothed with grain. They shout for joy! They also sing.
