| 1: 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 every night, |
| |
| 3:
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon
the harp with a solemn 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; |
| |
| 15: To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is
no unrighteousness in him. |
