1For the end, a Psalm and Song of David.

2Praise becomes thee, O God, in Sion; and to thee shall the vow be performed.

3Hear my prayer; to thee all flesh shall come.

4The words of transgressors have overpowered us; but do thou pardon our sins.

5Blessed is he whom thou hast chosen and adopted; he shall dwell in thy courts; we shall be filled with the good things of thy house; thy temple is holy.

6Thou art wonderful in righteousness. Hearken to us, O God our Saviour; the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are on the sea afar off:

7who dost ¹¹⁵establish the mountains in thy strength, being girded about with power;

8who troublest the depth of the sea, the sounds of its waves.

9The nations shall be troubled, and they that inhabit the ends of the earth shall be afraid of thy signs; thou wilt cause the outgoings of morning and evening to rejoice.

10Thou hast visited the earth, and saturated it; thou hast abundantly enriched it. The river of God is filled with water; thou hast prepared their food, for thus is the preparation of it.

11Saturate her furrows, multiply her fruits; the crop springing up shall rejoice in its drops.

12Thou wilt bless the crown of the year because of thy goodness; and thy plains shall be filled with fatness.

13The mountains of the wilderness shall be enriched; and the hills shall gird themselves with joy.

14The rams of the flock are clothed with wool, and the valleys shall abound in corn; they shall cry aloud, yea they shall sing hymns.
