Commentary on Psalms 65:1

Theological / Devotional

Praise waiteth for thee. Literally, “to thee is silence—praise” (see on Ps. 62:1). “When every other voice is hushed, and in quietness we wait before Him, the silence of the soul makes more distinct the voice of God”.

Sion. Elsewhere in the OT always “Zion” (see on Ps. 48:2).
