Shalom,

Psalm 65:1 says this in the KJV:

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

Let's look at some other translations of the Bible on this verse. Here are the Complete Jewish Bible; Young's Literal Translation and the Amplified Bible:

2(1) To you, God, in Tziyon, silence is praise; and vows to you are to be fulfilled. CJB

1 To Thee, silence — praise, O God, [is] in Zion, And to Thee is a vow completed. YLT

1 TO YOU belongs silence (the submissive wonder of reverence which bursts forth into praise) and praise is due and fitting to You, O God, in Zion; and to You shall the vow be performed. AMP

"Waiteth" in the KJV is the Hebrew word "duwmiyah. It means: stillness, silently, quiet, trust, repose, silence, to keep silence, to be motionless, to be stupified (amazed or astonished). SO, to be still and know that He IS God will result in praise bursting forth! Spontaneous praise is a great indication that THIS is a person who has spent time in the presence of the One, True, Most High, Living, Almighty God of the Bible! Do you want to absolutely thrill and bless "the socks off" of YOUR Praise and Worship Leader? Then spend time in the very presence of God until praise bursts forth, and then get yourself to church and be a participator! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "Praise Him":



Shalom in Him!
