This psalm is a song that David wrote for the music leader.

We trust God to save us[a]

65 God, it is right for us to praise you in Zion.
There, we will offer to you
    the gifts that we have promised.
You answer our prayers.
All of us must come to you,
    because of our many sins.
Our sins are too heavy for us to carry,
    but you forgive the bad things that we do against you.[b]
