Praise for the L{ORD}'{S} Goodness.

A Psalm, a Song for the Sabbath day.

1
It is good to give thanks to the LORD
And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; 2
To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning
And Your faithfulness by night, 3
With the ten-stringed lute and with the harp,
With resounding music upon the lyre. 4
For You, O LORD, have made me glad by what You have done,
I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

 5
How great are Your works, O LORD!
Your thoughts are very deep. 6
A senseless man has no knowledge,
Nor does a stupid man understand this: 7
That when the wicked sprouted up like grass
And all who did iniquity flourished,
It {was only} that they might be destroyed forevermore. 8
But You, O LORD, are on high forever. 9
For, behold, Your enemies, O LORD,
For, behold, Your enemies will perish;
All who do iniquity will be scattered.

 10
But You have exalted my horn like {that of} the wild ox;
I have been anointed with fresh oil. 11
And my eye has looked {exultantly} upon my foes,
My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me. 12
The righteous man will flourish like the palm tree,
He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon. 13
Planted in the house of the LORD,
They will flourish in the courts of our God. 14
They will still yield fruit in old age;
They shall be full of sap and very green, 15
To declare that the LORD is upright;
{He is} my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
