1It is good to praise Yahweh,
to sing praise to Your name, Most High,
2to declare Your faithful love in the morning
and Your faithfulness at night,
3with a ten-stringed harp
and the music of a lyre.
4For You have made me rejoice, Lord ,
by what You have done;
I will shout for joy
because of the works of Your hands.
5How magnificent are Your works, Lord ,
how profound Your thoughts!
6A stupid person does not know,
a fool does not understand this:
7though the wicked sprout like grass
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be eternally destroyed.
8But You, Lord , are exalted forever.[#Ps 93:4]
9For indeed, Lord , Your enemies —
indeed, Your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.
10You have lifted up my horn[#Ps 89:17,24; 112:9]
like that of a wild ox;
I have been anointed with oil.
11My eyes look down on my enemies;
my ears hear evildoers when they attack me.
12The righteous thrive like a palm tree
and grow like a cedar tree in Lebanon.
13Planted in the house of the Lord ,
they thrive in the courts of our God.
14They will still bear fruit in old age,
healthy and green,
15to declare: “The Lord is just;
He is my rock,
and there is no unrighteousness in Him.”
