⁴ For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord;
    I sing for joy^(G) at what your hands have done.^(H)
5 How great are your works,^(I) Lord,
    how profound your thoughts!^(J)
6 Senseless people^(K) do not know,
    fools do not understand,
⁷ that though the wicked spring up like grass
    and all evildoers flourish,
    they will be destroyed forever.^(L)

⁸ But you, Lord, are forever exalted.

⁹ For surely your enemies^(M), Lord,
    surely your enemies will perish;
    all evildoers will be scattered.^(N)
10 You have exalted my horn^[b](O) like that of a wild ox;^(P)
    fine oils^(Q) have been poured on me.
¹¹ My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries;
    my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.^(R)

¹² The righteous will flourish^(S) like a palm tree,
    they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;^(T)
13 planted in the house of the Lord,
    they will flourish in the courts of our God.^(U)
14 They will still bear fruit^(V) in old age,
    they will stay fresh and green,
¹⁵ proclaiming, “The Lord is upright;
    he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.^(W)”

Praise the Lord,^(A) my soul.

² I will praise the Lord all my life;^(B)
    I will sing praise^(C) to my God as long as I live.^(D)
3 Do not put your trust in princes,^(E)
    in human beings,^(F) who cannot save.
⁴ When their spirit departs, they return to the ground;^(G)
    on that very day their plans come to nothing.^(H)
5 Blessed are those^(I) whose help^(J) is the God of Jacob,
    whose hope is in the Lord their God.

⁶ He is the Maker of heaven^(K) and earth,
    the sea, and everything in them—
    he remains faithful^(L) forever.
⁷ He upholds^(M) the cause of the oppressed^(N)
    and gives food to the hungry.^(O)
The Lord sets prisoners free,^(P)
8     the Lord gives sight^(Q) to the blind,^(R)
the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down,^(S)
    the Lord loves the righteous.^(T)
9 The Lord watches over the foreigner^(U)
    and sustains the fatherless^(V) and the widow,^(W)
    but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.

¹⁰ The Lord reigns^(X) forever,
    your God, O Zion, for all generations.

Praise the Lord.
