1 There will be silence 1before You, and praise in Zion, O God,

And to You the avow will be performed.

2 O You who hear prayer,

To You aall 1men come.

3 1aIniquities prevail against me;

As for our transgressions, You 2bforgive them.

4 How ablessed is the one whom You bchoose and bring near to You

To dwell in Your courts.

We will be csatisfied with the goodness of Your house,

Your holy temple.

5 By aawesome deeds You answer us in righteousness, O bGod of our salvation,

You who are the trust of all the cends of the earth and of the farthest 1dsea;

6 Who aestablishes the mountains by His strength,

Being bgirded with might;

7 Who astills the roaring of the seas,

The roaring of their waves,

And the btumult of the peoples.

8 They who dwell in the aends of the earth stand in awe of Your signs;

You make the 1dawn and the sunset shout for joy.
