[1] It is good to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; [2] To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, And Your faithfulness every night, [3] On an instrument of ten strings, On the lute, And on the harp, With harmonious sound. [4] For You, LORD, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands. [5] O LORD, how great are Your works! Your thoughts are very deep. [6] A senseless man does not know, Nor does a fool understand this. [7] When the wicked spring up like grass, And when all the workers of iniquity flourish, It is that they may be destroyed forever. [8] But You, LORD, are on high forevermore. [9] For behold, Your enemies, O LORD, For behold, Your enemies shall perish; All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered. [10] But my horn You have exalted like a wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil. [11] My eye also has seen my desire on my enemies; My ears hear my desire on the wicked Who rise up against me. [12] The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. [13] Those who are planted in the house of the LORD Shall flourish in the courts of our God. [14] They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing, [15] To declare that the LORD is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
