| 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 shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every1 night,
|
|
| 3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp2 with a solemn3 sound.
|
|
| 4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
|
|
| 5 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.
|
|
| 6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
|
|
| 7 ¶ When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
|
|
| 8 But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.
|
|
| 9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
|
|
| 10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
|
|
| 11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
|
|
| 12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
|
|
| 13 Those that be 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 fat and flourishing;4
|
|
| 15 To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
