- A Psalme or song for the Sabbath day.
- 1
- It is a good thing to praise the Lord, and to sing vnto thy Name, O most High,
- 2
- To declare thy louing kindenesse in the morning, and thy trueth in the night,
- 3
- Vpon an instrument of tenne strings, and vpon the viole with the song vpon the harpe.
- 4
- For thou, Lord, hast made mee glad by thy workes, and I wil reioyce in the workes of thine handes.
- 5
- O Lord, how glorious are thy workes!
and thy thoughtes are very deepe.
- 6
- An vnwise man knoweth it not, and a foole doeth not vnderstand this,
- 7
- (When the wicked growe as the grasse, and all the workers of wickednesse doe flourish) that they shall be destroyed for euer.
- 8
- But thou, O Lord, art most High for euermore.
- 9
- For loe, thine enemies, O Lorde: for loe, thine enemies shall perish: all the workers of iniquitie shall be destroyed.
- 10
- But thou shalt exalt mine horne, like the vnicornes, and I shalbe anoynted with fresh oyle.
- 11
- Mine eye also shall see my desire against mine enemies: and mine eares shall heare my wish against the wicked, that rise vp against me.
- 12
- The righteous shall flourish like a palme tree, and shall grow like a Cedar in Lebanon.
- 13
- Such as bee planted in the house of the Lord, shall flourish in the courtes of our God.
- 14
- They shall still bring foorth fruite in their age: they shall be fat and flourishing,
- 15
- To declare that the Lord my rocke is righteous, and that none iniquitie is in him.
