and make music to your name, O Most High,
A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day.
1 It is good to praise the Lord
and make music to your name, O Most High,
2 proclaiming your love in the morning
and your faithfulness at night,
and your faithfulness at night,
3 to the music of the ten-stringed lyre
and the melody of the harp.
and the melody of the harp.
4 For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord;
I sing for joy at what your hands have done.
I sing for joy at what your hands have done.
5 How great are your works, Lord,
how profound your thoughts!
how profound your thoughts!
6 Senseless people do not know,
fools do not understand,
fools do not understand,
7 that though the wicked spring up like grass
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be destroyed forever.
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be destroyed forever.
8 But you, Lord, are forever exalted.
9 For surely your enemies, Lord,
surely your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.
surely your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.
10 You have exalted my hornb like that of a wild ox;
fine oils have been poured on me.

11 My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries;
my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.
my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.
12 The righteous will flourish like a palm tree,
they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;
they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;
13 planted in the house of the Lord,
they will flourish in the courts of our God.
they will flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They will still bear fruit in old age,
they will stay fresh and green,
they will stay fresh and green,
15 proclaiming, “The Lord is upright;
he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.”
he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.”
