Psalms 65:1

Psalm 65 ¹ 

For the music director; a psalm of David, a song.

65:1 Praise awaits you, ²  O God, in Zion.

Vows made to you are fulfilled.

Psalms 66:13-16

66:13 I will enter ³  your temple with burnt sacrifices;

I will fulfill the vows I made to you,

66:14 which my lips uttered

and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble.

66:15 I will offer up to you fattened animals as burnt sacrifices,

along with the smell of sacrificial rams.

I will offer cattle and goats. (Selah)

66:16 Come! Listen, all you who are loyal to God! ⁴ 

I will declare what he has done for me.

[65:1]  ¹ sn Psalm 65. The psalmist praises God because he forgives sin and blesses his people with an abundant harvest.

[65:1]  ² tn Heb “for you, silence, praise.” Many prefer to emend the noun דֻּמִיָּה (dumiyyah, “silence”) to a participle דּוֹמִיָּה (domiyyah), from the root דָּמָה (damah, “be silent”), understood here in the sense of “wait.”

[66:13]  ³ sn Here the psalmist switches to the singular; he speaks as the representative of the nation.

[66:16]  ⁵ tn Heb “all of the fearers of God.”
