3 with a harp of ten strings and with the melody of the lyre.

4 For you, Yahweh, have made me glad through your deeds. I will sing for joy because of the deeds of your hands.

For You, O LORD, have made me glad by Your deeds; I sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

5 How great are your deeds, Yahweh! Your thoughts are very deep.

How great are Your works, O LORD, how deep are Your thoughts!

6 A brutish person does not know, nor does a fool understand this:

A senseless man does not know, and a fool does not understand,

7 When the wicked sprout like the grass, and even when all the evildoers thrive, still they are doomed to eternal destruction.

that though the wicked sprout like grass, and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.

8 But you, Yahweh, will reign forever.

But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!

9 Indeed, look at your enemies, Yahweh! Indeed, look at your enemies. They will perish! All those who do evil will be scattered.

For surely Your enemies, O LORD, surely Your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10 You have lifted up my horn like the horn of the wild ox; I am anointed with fresh oil.

But You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; with fine oil I have been anointed.

11 My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard of the doom of my evil foes.

My eyes see the downfall of my enemies; my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.

12 The righteous will flourish like the palm tree; they will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 They are planted in the house of Yahweh; they flourish in the courts of our God.

Planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

14 They bear fruit even when they are old; they stay fresh and green,

In old age they will still bear fruit; healthy and green they will remain,

15 to proclaim that Yahweh is just. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

to proclaim, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock, and in Him there is no unrighteousness.”
