1 It is a good thing to give thanks to Yahweh,

to sing praises to your name, Most High,

2 to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning,

and your faithfulness every night,

3 with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp,

and with the melody of the lyre.

4 For you, Yahweh, have made me glad through your work.

I will triumph in the works of your hands.

5 How great are your works, Yahweh!

Your thoughts are very deep.

6 A senseless man doesn’t know,

neither does a fool understand this:

7 though the wicked spring up as the grass,

and all the evildoers flourish,

they will be destroyed forever.

8 But you, Yahweh, are on high forever more.

9 For behold, your enemies, Yahweh,

for behold, your enemies shall perish.

All the evildoers will be scattered.

10 But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox.

I am anointed with fresh oil.

11 My eye has also seen my enemies.

My ears have heard of the wicked enemies who rise up against me.

12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree.

He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 They are planted in Yahweh’s house.

They will flourish in our God’s courts.

14 They will still produce fruit in old age.

They will be full of sap and green,

15 to show that Yahweh is upright.

He is my rock,

and there is no unrighteousness in him.

1 A Psalm [or] Song for the sabbath day. [It is a] good [thing] to give thanks unto the LORD and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:

2 To show forth thy mercy in the morning and thy faithfulness every night

3 upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the psaltery, upon the harp with a pleasant sound.

4 For thou, O LORD, hast made me glad with thy work; I will delight in the works of thy hands.

5 O LORD, how great are thy works! [and] thy thoughts are very deep.

6 A carnal man does not know, neither does a fool understand this:

7 The wicked spring forth as the grass, and all the workers of iniquity blossom, [so] that they shall be destroyed for ever:

8 But thou, O LORD, [art most] high for evermore.

9 For, behold, thine enemies, O LORD, for behold, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like [the horn of] a unicorn; I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

11 And my eye saw [my desire] on my enemies, [and] my ears heard [my desire] of those that rose up against me, of the wicked.

12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree; he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 Those that are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be vigorous and flourishing

15 to show that the LORD is upright; [he is] my rock, and [there is] no unrighteousness in him.:
