How Great Are Your Works
A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.
1 Ps. 147:1;[Ps. 71:22] It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to your name, [Gen. 14:19,20]O Most High;
2 to declare your See Ps. 36:5steadfast love in [Ps. 119:147,148]the morning,
and your See Ps. 36:5faithfulness by [Ps. 119:147,148]night,
3 to the music of See Ps. 33:2the lute and See Ps. 33:2the harp,
to the melody of See Ps. 33:2the lyre.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your See Ps. 90:16work;
at Ps. 8:6the works of your hands I sing for joy.
5 How Ps. 111:2;Rev. 15:3great are your works, O Lord!
Your Ps. 40:5;139:17thoughts are very [Rom. 11:33]; See Ps. 36:6deep!
6 The stupid man cannot know;
the fool cannot understand this:
7 that though See Job 21:7the wicked sprout like grass
and all Ps. 94:4;125:5evildoers flourish,
they are doomed to destruction forever;
8 but you, O Lord, are Ps. 93:4on high forever.
9 For behold, your enemies, O Lord,
for behold, your enemies shall perish;
all evildoers shall be See Ps. 68:1scattered.
10 But you have exalted my See Ps. 75:10;1 Sam. 2:1horn like that of Num. 23:22the wild ox;
you have See Ps. 23:5poured over me92:10 Compare Syriac; the meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain fresh oil.
11 My See Ps. 37:34;54:7eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies;
my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.
12 Ps. 1:3;52:8;72:7;Prov. 11:28;[Num. 24:6;Isa. 61:3]; See Hos. 14:5-8The righteous flourish like the palm tree
and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They are planted in the house of the Lord;
they flourish in Ps. 100:4;116:19;135:2the courts of our God.
14 They still bear fruit in old age;
they are ever full of sap and green,
15 [Ps. 58:11] to declare that the Lord is upright;
he is my See Ps. 18:2rock, and there is See Job 34:10no unrighteousness in him.
