Psalms 65:13
11 You crown the year with Your bounty, and Your paths overflow with plenty.
12 The pastures of the wilderness overflow; the hills are robed with joy.
The pastures are clothed with flocks, and the valleys are decked with grain. They shout in triumph; indeed, they sing.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
