[1] There will be silence before You, and praise in Zion, God, And the vow will be fulfilled for You. [2] You who hear prayer, To You all mankind comes. [3] Wrongdoings prevail against me; As for our offenses, You forgive them. [4] Blessed is the one You choose and allow to approach You; He will dwell in Your courtyards. We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house, Your holy temple. [5] By awesome deeds You answer us in righteousness, God of our salvation, You who are the trust of all the ends of the earth and the farthest sea; [6] Who establishes the mountains by His strength, Who is encircled with might; [7] Who stills the roaring of the seas, The roaring of their waves, And the turmoil of the nations. [8] They who dwell at the ends of the earth stand in awe of Your signs; You make the sunrise and the sunset shout for joy. [9] You visit the earth and cause it to overflow; You greatly enrich it; The stream of God is full of water; You prepare their grain, for so You prepare the earth. [10] You water its furrows abundantly, You settle its ridges, You soften it with showers, You bless its growth. [11] You have crowned the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with fatness. [12] The pastures of the wilderness drip, And the hills encircle themselves with rejoicing. [13] The meadows are clothed with flocks And the valleys are covered with grain; They shout for joy, yes, they sing.
