1It is good to give thanks unto Jehovah, and to sing psalms unto thy name, O Most High;

2To declare thy loving-kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness in the nights,

3Upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the lute; upon the Higgaion with the harp.

4For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work; I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

5Jehovah, how great are thy works! Thy thoughts are very deep:

6A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand it.

7When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they may be destroyed for ever.

8And thou, Jehovah, art on high for evermore.

9For lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10But my horn shalt thou exalt like a buffalo's: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

11And mine eye shall see [its desire] on mine enemies; mine ears shall hear [it] of the evil-doers that rise up against me.

12The righteous shall shoot forth like a palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar on Lebanon.

13Those that are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our ³⁷²God:

14They are still vigorous in old age, they are full of sap and green;

15To shew that Jehovah is upright: [he is] my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
