How Great Are Your Works, O Yahweh

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath day.

1It is good to give thanks to Yahweh

And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;

2To 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.

4For You, O Yahweh, have made me glad by [†]what You have done,

I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

5How great are Your works, O Yahweh!

Your [†]thoughts are very deep.

6A senseless man does not know,

And a fool does not understand this:

7That when the wicked flourished like grass

And all the workers of iniquity blossomed,

It was only that they might be destroyed forevermore.

8But You are on high forever, O Yahweh.

9For, behold, Your enemies, O Yahweh,

For, behold, Your enemies will perish;

All the workers of iniquity will be scattered.

10But You have raised up my horn like that of the wild ox;

I have [†]been anointed with fresh oil.

11And my eye has looked exultantly upon [†]my foes,

My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me.

12The righteous man will [†]flourish like the palm tree,

He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13Planted in the house of Yahweh,

They will flourish in the courts of our God.

14They will still [†]yield fruit in old age;

They shall be [†]rich and fresh,

15To [†]declare that Yahweh is upright;

He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
