65:1 | Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed. |
65:2 | O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come. |
65:3 | Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away. |
65:4 | Blessed 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. |
65:5 | By 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: |
65:6 | Which by his strength setteth fast the mountains; being girded with power: |
65:7 | Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people. |
65:8 | They also that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens: thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice. |
65:9 | Thou 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. |
65:10 | Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly: thou settlest the furrows thereof: thou makest it soft with showers: thou blessest the springing thereof. |
65:11 | Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness. |
65:12 | They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side. |
65:13 | The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing. |

By the mid-18th century the wide variation in the various modernized printed texts of the Authorized Version, combined with the notorious accumulation of misprints, had reached the proportion of a scandal, and the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge both sought to produce an updated standard text. First of the two was the Cambridge edition of 1760, the culmination of twenty-years work by Francis Sawyer Parris, who died in May of that year. This 1760 edition was reprinted without change in 1762 and in John Baskerville's fine folio edition of 1763. This was effectively superseded by the 1769 Oxford edition, edited by Benjamin Blayney.
