A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.

• ¹It is a good thing to give thanks to Yahweh,
• to sing praises to your name, Most High;

• ²to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning,
• and your faithfulness every night,

• ³with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp,
• and with the melody of the lyre.

• ⁴For you, Yahweh, have made me glad through your work.
• I will triumph in the works of your hands.

• ⁵How great are your works, Yahweh!
• Your thoughts are very deep.

• ⁶A senseless man doesn’t know,
• neither does a fool understand this:

• ⁷though the wicked spring up as the grass,
• and all the evildoers flourish,
• they will be destroyed forever.

• ⁸But you, Yahweh, are on high forevermore.

• ⁹For, behold, your enemies, Yahweh,
• for, behold, your enemies shall perish.
• All the evildoers will be scattered.

• ¹⁰But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox.
• I am anointed with fresh oil.

• ¹¹My eye has also seen my enemies.
• My ears have heard of the wicked enemies who rise up against me.

• ¹²The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree.
• He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

• ¹³They are planted in Yahweh’s house.
• They will flourish in our God’s courts.

• ¹⁴They will still bring forth fruit in old age.
• They will be full of sap and green,
• ¹⁵to show that Yahweh is upright.

• He is my rock,
• and there is no unrighteousness in him.
