65 In finem. Canticum psalmi resurrectionis. Jubilate Deo, omnis terra;

psalmum dicite nomini ejus; date gloriam laudi ejus.

Dicite Deo: Quam terribilia sunt opera tua, Domine! in multitudine virtutis tuae mentientur tibi inimici tui.

Omnis terra adoret te, et psallat tibi; psalmum dicat nomini tuo.

Venite, et videte opera Dei: terribilis in consiliis super filios hominum.

Qui convertit mare in aridam; in flumine pertransibunt pede: ibi laetabimur in ipso.

Qui dominatur in virtute sua in aeternum; oculi ejus super gentes respiciunt: qui exasperant non exaltentur in semetipsis.

Benedicite, gentes, Deum nostrum, et auditam facite vocem laudis ejus:

qui posuit animam meam ad vitam, et non dedit in commotionem pedes meos.

10 Quoniam probasti nos, Deus; igne nos examinasti, sicut examinatur argentum.

11 Induxisti nos in laqueum; posuisti tribulationes in dorso nostro;

12 imposuisti homines super capita nostra. Transivimus per ignem et aquam, et eduxisti nos in refrigerium.

13 Introibo in domum tuam in holocaustis; reddam tibi vota mea

14 quae distinxerunt labia mea: et locutum est os meum in tribulatione mea.

15 Holocausta medullata offeram tibi, cum incenso arietum; offeram tibi boves cum hircis.

16 Venite, audite, et narrabo, omnes qui timetis Deum, quanta fecit animae meae.

17 Ad ipsum ore meo clamavi, et exaltavi sub lingua mea.

18 Iniquitatem si aspexi in corde meo, non exaudiet Dominus.

19 Propterea exaudivit Deus, et attendit voci deprecationis meae.

20 Benedictus Deus, qui non amovit orationem meam, et misericordiam suam a me.

Psalm 65[a]

For the director of music. A psalm of David. A song.

Praise awaits[b] you, our God, in Zion;(A)
    to you our vows will be fulfilled.(B)
You who answer prayer,
    to you all people will come.(C)
When we were overwhelmed by sins,(D)
    you forgave[c] our transgressions.(E)
Blessed are those you choose(F)
    and bring near(G) to live in your courts!
We are filled with the good things of your house,(H)
    of your holy temple.

You answer us with awesome and righteous deeds,(I)
    God our Savior,(J)
the hope of all the ends of the earth(K)
    and of the farthest seas,(L)
who formed the mountains(M) by your power,
    having armed yourself with strength,(N)
who stilled the roaring of the seas,(O)
    the roaring of their waves,
    and the turmoil of the nations.(P)
The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders;
    where morning dawns, where evening fades,
    you call forth songs of joy.(Q)

You care for the land and water it;(R)
    you enrich it abundantly.(S)
The streams of God are filled with water
    to provide the people with grain,(T)
    for so you have ordained it.[d]
10 You drench its furrows and level its ridges;
    you soften it with showers(U) and bless its crops.
11 You crown the year with your bounty,(V)
    and your carts overflow with abundance.(W)
12 The grasslands of the wilderness overflow;(X)
    the hills are clothed with gladness.(Y)
13 The meadows are covered with flocks(Z)
    and the valleys are mantled with grain;(AA)
    they shout for joy and sing.(AB)
