| 2You hear prayers; all people approach you. | 2Since you hear prayer, everybody will come to you. |
| 3Our record of sins overwhelms me, but you forgive our acts of rebellion. | 3My acts of iniquity—they overwhelm me! Our transgressions—you blot them out! |
| 4How blessed is the one whom you choose, and allow to live in your palace courts. May we be satisfied with the good things of your house--your holy palace. | 4How blessed is the one you choose, the one you cause to live in your courts. We will be satisfied with the goodness of your house, yes, even with the holiness of your Temple. |
| 5You answer our prayers by performing awesome acts of deliverance, O God, our savior. All the ends of the earth trust in you, as well as those living across the wide seas. | 5With awesome deeds of justice you will answer us, God our Deliverer; you are the confidence for everyone at the ends of the earth, even for those far away overseas. |
| 6You created the mountains by your power, and demonstrated your strength. | 6The One who established the mountains by his strength is clothed with omnipotence. |

| 8Even those living in the most remote areas are awestruck by your acts; you cause those living in the east and west to praise you. | 8Those living at the furthest ends of the earth are seized by fear because of your miraculous deeds. You make the going forth of the morning and the evening shout for joy. |
| 9You visit the earth and give it rain; you make it rich and fertile with overflowing streams full of water. You provide grain for them, for you prepare the earth to yield its crops. | 9You take care of the earth, you water it, and you enrich it greatly with the river of God that overflows with water. You provide grain for them, for you have ordained it this way. |

| 11You crown the year with your good blessings, and you leave abundance in your wake. | 11You crown the year with your goodness; your footsteps drop prosperity behind them. |
| 12The pastures in the wilderness glisten with moisture, and the hills are clothed with joy. | 12The wilderness pastures drip with dew, and the hills wrap themselves with joy. |
| 13The meadows are clothed with sheep, and the valleys are covered with grain. They shout joyfully, yes, they sing. | 13The meadows are clothed with flocks of sheep, and the valleys are covered with grain. They shout for joy; yes, they burst out in song! |
