Praise to the Lord for His Love and FaithfulnessA Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath day.1It is good to give thanks to the Lord, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
2To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, And Your faithfulness every night,
3On an instrument of ten strings, On the lute, And on the harp, With harmonious sound.
4For You, Lord, have made me glad through Your work; I will triumph in the works of Your hands.
5O Lord, how great are Your works! Your thoughts are very deep.
6A senseless man does not know, Nor does a fool understand this.
7When the wicked [a]spring up like grass, And when all the workers of iniquity flourish, It is that they may be destroyed forever.
8But You, Lord, are on high forevermore.
9For behold, Your enemies, O Lord, For behold, Your enemies shall perish; All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10But my [b]horn You have exalted like a wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil.
11My eye also has seen my desire on my enemies; My ears hear my desire on the wicked Who rise up against me.
12The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be [c]fresh and [d]flourishing,
15To declare that the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him. The Holy Bible, New King James Version, Copyright © 1982 Thomas Nelson. All rights reserved.
