| 1 | A psalm of a canticle on the sabbath day. |
| 2 | It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High. |
| 3 | To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth in the night: |
| 4 | Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp. |
| 5 | For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice. |
| 6 | O Lord, how great are thy works! thy thoughts are exceeding deep. |
| 7 | The senseless man shall not know: nor will the fool understand these things. |
| 8 | When the wicked shall spring up as grass: and all the workers of iniquity shall appear: That they may perish for ever and ever: |
| 9 | But thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore. |
| 10 | For behold thy enemies, O Lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered. |
| 11 | But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: and my old age in plentiful mercy. |
| 12 | My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me. |
| 13 | The just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus. |
| 14 | They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God. |
| 15 | They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: and shall be well treated, |
| 16 | That they may shew, That the Lord our God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him. |
