1. It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:
2. To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
3. With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; with a solemn sound upon the harp.
4. For thou, Lord, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5. How great are thy works, O Lord! thy thoughts are very deep.
6. A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this:
7. When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
8. But thou, O Lord, art on high for evermore.
9. For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10. But my horn hast thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox: I am anointed with fresh oil.
11. Mine eye also hath seen my desire on mine enemies, mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.
