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.
