| 1 | Chanting a song to the day of Sabbath. It is good to confess to Jehovah, to play on the harp to thy name, O Most High. | It is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praises to your name, O Most High; | A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day. It is good to praise the LORD and make music to your name, O Most High, | |
| 2 | To announce in the morning thy mercy, and thy faithfulness in the night. | to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness by night, | proclaiming your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night, | |
| 3 | Upon a ten stringed instrument, and upon the lyre; with the murmurs upon the harp. | to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre. | to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp. | |
| 4 | For thou didst gladden me, O Jehovah, by thy work: I will rejoice in the works of thy hands. | For you, O LORD, have made me glad by your work; at the works of your hands I sing for joy. | For you make me glad by your deeds, LORD; I sing for joy at what your hands have done. | |
| 5 | How great were thy works, O Jehovah! thy thoughts were very deep. | How great are your works, O LORD! Your thoughts are very deep! | How great are your works, LORD, how profound your thoughts! | |
| 6 | A brutish man shall not know, and a fool shall not understand this. | The stupid man cannot know; the fool cannot understand this: | Senseless people do not know, fools do not understand, | |
| 7 | In the putting forth of the unjust as grass, and all working iniquity shall flourish; to destroy them even to forever: | that though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they are doomed to destruction forever; | that though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever. | |
| 8 | And thou being high, O Jehovah, forever. | but you, O LORD, are on high forever. | But you, LORD, are forever exalted. | |
| 9 | For behold, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for behold, thine enemies shall perish; all working iniquity shall be dispersed. | For behold, your enemies, O LORD, for behold, your enemies shall perish; all evildoers shall be scattered. | For surely your enemies, LORD, surely your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered. | |
| 10 | My horn shall be lifted up as a buffalo: I was poured over with fresh oil. | But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; you have poured over me fresh oil. | You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; fine oils have been poured on me. | |
| 11 | And mine eye shall look upon mine enemies: in the risings up of the unjust against me, mine ears shall hear. | My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants. | My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries; my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes. | |
| 12 | The just one shall flourish as the palm tree: he shall become great as the cedar in Lebanon. | The righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. | The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; | |
| 13 | Those being planted in the house of Jehovah, shall flourish in the enclosures of our God. | They are planted in the house of the LORD; they flourish in the courts of our God. | planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God. | |
| 14 | They shall yet sprout in old as; they shall be fat and green. | They still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green, | They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, | |
| 15 | To announce that Jehovah is upright: my rock and no iniquity in him. | to declare that the LORD is upright; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him. | proclaiming, “The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.” | |
