1It is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praises to the Most High.

1It is good to give thanks to the LORD and to sing praise to your name, Most High;

2It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning, your faithfulness in the evening,

2to proclaim your gracious love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,

3accompanied by a ten-stringed instrument, a harp, and the melody of a lyre.

3accompanied by a ten-stringed instrument and a lyre, and the contemplative sound of a harp.

4You thrill me, LORD, with all you have done for me! I sing for joy because of what you have done.

4Because you made me glad with your awesome deeds, LORD, I will sing for joy at the works of your hands.

5O LORD, what great works you do! And how deep are your thoughts.

5How great are your works, LORD! Your thoughts are unfathomable.

6Only a simpleton would not know, and only a fool would not understand this:

6A stupid man doesn't know, and a fool can't comprehend this:

7Though the wicked sprout like weeds and evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.

7Though the wicked sprout like grass; and all who practice iniquity flourish, it is they who will be eternally destroyed.

8But you, O LORD, will be exalted forever.

8But you are exalted forever, LORD.

9Your enemies, LORD, will surely perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

9Look at your enemies, LORD! Look at your enemies, for they are destroyed; everyone who practices iniquity will be scattered.

10But you have made me as strong as a wild ox. You have anointed me with the finest oil.

10You've grown my strength like the horn of a wild ox; I was anointed with fresh oil.

11My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the defeat of my wicked opponents.

11My eyes gloated over those who lie in wait for me; when those of evil intent attack me, my ears will hear.

12But the godly will flourish like palm trees and grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon.

12The righteous will flourish like palm trees; they will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13For they are transplanted to the LORD’s own house. They flourish in the courts of our God.

13Planted in the LORD's Temple, they will flourish in the courtyard of our God.

14Even in old age they will still produce fruit; they will remain vital and green.

14They will still bear fruit even in old age; they will be luxuriant and green.

15They will declare, “The LORD is just! He is my rock! There is no evil in him!”

15They will proclaim: "The LORD is upright; my rock, in whom there is no injustice."
