1 | It is a good thing to give thanks unto Jehovah, And to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High; |
2 | To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, And thy faithfulness every night, |
3 | With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; With a solemn sound upon the harp. |
4 | For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands. |
5 | How great are thy works, O Jehovah! 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, O Jehovah, art on high for evermore. |
9 | For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, For, lo, thine enemies shall perish; All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered. |
10 | But my horn hast thou exalted like [the horn of] the wild-ox: I am anointed with fresh oil. |
11 | Mine eye also hath seen [my desire] on mine enemies, Mine ears have heard [my desire] of the evil-doers that rise up against me. |
12 | The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree: He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. |
13 | They are planted in the house of Jehovah; They shall flourish in the courts of our God. |
14 | They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; They shall be full of sap and green: |
15 | To show that Jehovah is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. Psalm 93 |
