3 Iniquities overwhelm me;only You can atone for our rebellions.
4 How happy is the one You chooseand bring near to live in Your courts!We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,the holiness of Your temple.
5 You answer us in righteousness,with awe-inspiring works,God of our salvation,the hope of all the ends of the earthand of the distant seas.
6 You establish the mountains by Your power,robed with strength.
7 You silence the roar of the seas,the roar of their waves,and the tumult of the nations.
8 Those who live far away are awed by Your signs;You make east and west shout for joy.
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.
