Read the chapter

1Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed. ✦ 2O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come. ✦ 3Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away. ✦ 4Blessed 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. ✦ 5By 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: ✦ 6Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power: ✦ 7Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people. ✦ 8They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice. ✦ 9Thou 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. ✦ 10Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof. ✦ 11Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness. ✦ 12They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side. ✦ 13The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.

How Psalms 65 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
