NEW JERUSALEMKING JAMES BIBLE
1 [Psalm Song For the Sabbath] It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, to make music for your name, MostHigh,1 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:
2 to proclaim your faithful love at daybreak, and your constancy al through the night,2 To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
3 on the lyre, the ten-stringed lyre, to the murmur of the harp.3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.
4 You have brought me joy, Yahweh, by your deeds, at the work of your hands I cry out,4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5 'How great are your works, Yahweh, immensely deep your thoughts!'5 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.
6 Stupid people cannot realise this, fools do not grasp it.6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
7 The wicked may sprout like weeds, and every evil-doer flourish, but only to be eternally destroyed;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 whereas you are supreme for ever, Yahweh.8 But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.
9 Look how your enemies perish, how all evil-doers are scattered!9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 You give me the strength of the wild ox, you anoint me with fresh oil;10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11 I caught sight of the ambush against me, overheard the plans of the wicked.11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
12 The upright wil flourish like the palm tree, will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Planted in the house of Yahweh, they wil flourish in the courts of our God.13 Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 In old age they wil stil bear fruit, wil remain fresh and green,14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
15 to proclaim Yahweh's integrity; my rock, in whom no fault can be found.15 To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
