Psalms - Chapter 91

Passage

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