Psalms 65:1 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Praise waiteth... — Literally, To thee silence praise, which recalls Psalms 62:1 (see Note), but must be differently explained. To say, Praise is silence to thee, is hardly intelligible. The LXX. and Vulg. read differently, “praise is comely.” Better supply a conjunction, To thee are quiet and praise, i.e., submissive expectation till the deliverance come (Psalms 62:1), and then exulting praise.

Shall the vow. — Better, Is the vow paid, i.e., by the praise just mentioned.

Psalms 65:1

1 Praise waitetha for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the vow be performed.
