2. It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning,your faithfulness in the evening,
3. accompanied by a ten-stringed instrument, a harp,and the melody of a lyre.
4. You thrill me, lord, with all you have done for me!I sing for joy because of what you have done.
5. O lord, what great works you do!And how deep are your thoughts.
6. Only a simpleton would not know,and only a fool would not understand this:
7. Though the wicked sprout like weedsand evildoers flourish,they will be destroyed forever.
8. But you, O lord, will be exalted forever.
9. Your enemies, lord, will surely perish;all evildoers will be scattered.
10. But you have made me as strong as a wild ox.You have anointed me with the finest oil.
11. My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies;my ears have heard the defeat of my wicked opponents.
12. But the godly will flourish like palm treesand grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon.
