How great are Your works Lord,
Your thoughts are very deep;
Faithful love is adored,
A shepherd for His sheep.

The dumb man cannot know,
Fools do not understand;
About what is below,
And the future at hand.

Though the wicked may sprout,
Evildoers flourish;
Destruction that they doubt,
They are doomed to perish.

Lord on high forever,
For behold all your foes;
Think that they are clever,
Causing terror and woes.

But evil shall scatter,
Enemies shall perish;
You silence their chatter,
They lose all they cherish.

Like the horn of a bull,
You laud me with oil;
And made my harvest full,
That has made less toil.

My eyes have seen their fall,
My ears have heard their doom;
As my enemies call,
Since hell is dark and gloom.

For the righteous flourish,
Like palms in the desert;
It is You they cherish,
Because feeling comfort.

Tall cedars made the house,
Which are planted by You;
As prepared for your spouse,
To flourish and pursue.

They still are bearing fruit,
Full of sap and so green;
Bedded in rock the root,
As strong as ever been.
