1 Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.

64:1 In finem. Psalmus David, canticum Jeremiæ et Ezechielis populo transmigrationis, cum inciperent exire.

2 ¶ Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion,
et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem.

2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come.

3 Exaudi orationem meam;
ad te omnis caro veniet.

3 Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.

4 Verba iniquorum prævaluerunt super nos,
et impietatibus nostris tu propitiaberis.

4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple.

5 Beatus quem elegisti et assumpsisti:
inhabitabit in atriis tuis.
Replebimur in bonis domus tuæ;
sanctum est templum tuum,

5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:

6 mirabile in æquitate.
Exaudi nos, Deus, salutaris noster,
spes omnium finium terræ, et in mari longe.

6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power:

7 Præparans montes in virtute tua,
accinctus potentia;

7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.

8 qui conturbas profundum maris,
sonum fluctuum ejus.
Turbabuntur gentes,

8 They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

9 et timebunt qui habitant terminos a signis tuis;
exitus matutini et vespere delectabis.

9 Thou visitest the earth, and waterest it: thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, which is full of water: thou preparest them corn, when thou hast so provided for it.

10 Visitasti terram, et inebriasti eam;
multiplicasti locupletare eam.
Flumen Dei repletum est aquis; parasti cibum illorum:
quoniam ita est præparatio ejus.

10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof.

11 Rivos ejus inebria;
multiplica genimina ejus:
in stillicidiis ejus lætabitur germinans.

11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.

12 Benedices coronæ anni benignitatis tuæ,
et campi tui replebuntur ubertate.

12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side.

13 Pinguescent speciosa deserti,
et exsultatione colles accingentur.

13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.

14 Induti sunt arietes ovium,
et valles abundabunt frumento;
clamabunt, etenim hymnum dicent.
