 1 A Psalm or song for the Sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to the Lord and to sing praises to your name O Most High. 2 To show forth your lovingkindness in the morning and your faithfulness every night. 3 On the ten strings and on the harp with sounding music on the lyre. 4 For you, Lord, have made me glad with your work. I will triumph in the works of your hands. 5 O Lord, how great are your works. Your purposes are very deep. 6 A beastly man does not know, nor does a fool understand this. 7 When the wicked spring as the grass and when all the workers of iniquity blossom, shall be destroyed forever. 8 But you, Lord, are high forever. 9 Your enemies, Lord will perish. All the workers of iniquity will be scattered. 10 You will lift up my horn like the wild ox. I will be anointed with fresh oil. 11 My eye will see my desire on my enemies and my ears will hear the wicked who rise up against me. 12 The righteous will flourish like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon. 13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord will flourish in the courts of our God. 14 They will still bring forth fruit in old age. They will be fulfilled+ and flowering. 15 This to show that the Lord is upright. He is my rock and no unrighteousness is in Him.
