For the choir director. A psalm of David. A song.
1 Praise is rightfully yours,B
God, in Zion;
vows to you will be fulfilled.g
2 All humanity will come to you,
the one who hears prayer.h
only you can atone for our rebellions.i
4 How happy is the one you choose
and bring near to live in your courts!
We will be satisfied with the goodness of your house*,
the holiness of your temple.C,j
5 You answer us in righteousness,
with awe-inspiring works,
God of our salvation,
the hope of all the ends of the earth
and of the distant seas.k
6 You establish the mountains by your power;
you are robed with strength.l
7 You silence the roar of the seas,
the roar of their waves,
and the tumult of the nations.m
8 Those who live far away are awed by your signs;
you make east and west shout for joy.n
9 You visit the earth and water it abundantly,
enriching it greatly.
God’s stream is filled with water,
for you prepare the earth in this way,
providing people with grain.o
10 You soften it with showers and bless its growth,
soaking its furrows and leveling its ridges.p
11 You crown the year with your goodness;
your carts overflow with plenty.D,q
12 The wilderness pastures overflow,
and the hills are robed with joy.r
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks
and the valleys covered with grain.s
They shout in triumph; indeed, they sing.t

About Christian Standard BibleThe Christian Standard Bible (CSB) is a highly trustworthy, faithful translation that is proven to be the optimal blend of accuracy and readability. It’s as literal to the original as possible without sacrificing clarity. The CSB is poised to become the translation that pastors rely on and Bible readers turn to again and again to read and to share with others. The CSB is an original translation: more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations translated directly from the best available Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic source texts into English. Its source texts are the standard used by scholars and seminaries today. The CSB is trustworthy: the conservative, evangelical scholars of the CSB affirm the authority of Scripture as the inerrant Word of God and seek the highest level of faithfulness to the original and accuracy in their translation. These scholars and LifeWay, the non-profit ministry that stewards the CSB, also champion the Bible against cultural trends that would compromise its truths. The CSB is clear: it is as literal a translation of the ancient source texts as possible, but, in the many places throughout Scripture where a word-for-word rendering might obscure the meaning for a modern audience, it uses a more dynamic translation. In all cases, the intent is to convey the original meaning of God’s Word as faithfully and as clearly as possible. |
