Psalm 65
[A psalm by David and a song for the music leader.]
God Answers Prayer

¹Our God, you deserve praise in Zion,

where we keep our promises to you.

²Everyone will come to you because you answer prayer.

Our terrible sins get us down, but you forgive us.

⁴You bless your chosen ones, and you invite them

to live near you in your temple.

We will enjoy your house, the sacred temple.

⁵Our God, you save us, and your fearsome deeds

answer our prayers for justice!

You give hope to people everywhere on earth,

even those across the sea.

⁶You are strong,

and your mighty power put the mountains in place.

⁷You silence the roaring waves

and the noisy shouts of the nations.

⁸People far away marvel at your fearsome deeds,

and all who live under the sun

celebrate and sing because of you.

⁹You take care of the earth and send rain

to help the soil grow all kinds of crops.

Your rivers never run dry,

and you prepare the earth to produce much grain.

¹⁰You water all of its fields and level the lumpy ground.

You send showers of rain to soften the soil

and help the plants sprout.

¹¹Wherever your footsteps touch the earth,

a rich harvest is gathered.

¹²Desert pastures blossom, and mountains celebrate.

¹³Meadows are filled with sheep and goats;

valleys overflow with grain

and echo with joyful songs.
