CHAP. LXV.
1 Dauid prayeth God for his grace. 4 The blessednesse of Gods chosen, by reason of benefits.
1 [To the chiefe musician, a Psalme and song of Dauid.] Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and vnto thee shall the vowe be performed.1
2 O thou that hearest prayer, vnto thee shall all flesh come.
3 Iniquities preuaile against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away.3
6 Which by his strength setteth fast the mountaines; being girded with power.
7 Which stilleth the noise of the seas; the noise of their waues, and the tumult of the people.
8 They also that dwell in the vttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning, and euening to reioyce.8
9 Thou visitest the earth and waterest it: thou greatly inrichest it with the riuer of God which is full of water; thou preparest them corne, when thou hast so prouided for it.9
10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrowes thereof: thou makest it soft with showres, thou blessest the springing thereof.10
11 Thou crownest the yeere with thy goodnesse; and thy paths drop fatnesse.11
12 They drop vpon the pastures of the wildernesse; and the little hilles reioyce on euery side.12

65:4 Approach - To draw near to God in his house and ordinance, by prayer and praise, and other acts of communion with him. Satisfied - With the blessings there conferred upon thy people, the favour and fellowship of God, remission of sins, renovation of heart and life, joy and peace, and well - grounded assurance of eternal life.
65:5 Righteousness - By virtue of thy faithfulness, and goodness. Wilt thou - Thou wilt graciously answer our prayers. The confidence - Thou art the stay and support of all mankind, by thy powerful and gracious providence.
65:7 Tumult - No less wild and impetuous.
65:8 Thy tokens - Terrible thunders and lightnings, and earthquakes, and comets or other strange meteors, or works of God in the air. Morning - The successive courses of the morning and evening; or of the sun and moon which go forth at those times. Thus the whole verse speaks of the natural works of God, the former clause, of such as are extraordinary and terrible, the latter of such as are ordinary and delightful.
65:9 River - With rain, which he very significantly calls a river for its plenty, and the river of God, of God's immediate providing. Them - The inhabitants of the earth. Provided - Or, disposed, the earth, which without this would be hard and barren.
65:10 Bringest down - For the rain dissolves the high and hard clods of earth.
65:12 Wilderness - Which though neglected by men, are furnished with food for beasts.
65:13 Sing - They are abundantly satisfied with thy goodness, and in their manner sing forth the praise of their benefactor.
