Psalm 92. Bonum est confiteri.

From the Book of Divine Worship - The Psalter or Psalms of David - Traditional - Eighteenth Day - Morning Prayer.
  1. IT is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, *
    and to sing praises unto thy Name, O Most Highest;
  2. To tell of thy loving-kindness early in the morning, *
    and of thy truth in the night season;
  3. Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the lute; *
    upon a loud instrument, and upon the harp.
  4. For thou, Lord, hast made me glad through thy works; *
    and I will rejoice in giving praise for the operations of thy hands.
  5. O Lord, how glorious are thy works! *
    thy thoughts are very deep.
  6. An unwise man doth not well consider this, *
    and a fool doth not understand it.
  7. When the ungodly are green as the grass, and when all the workers of wickedness do flourish, *
    then shall they be destroyed for ever; but thou, Lord, art the Most Highest for evermore.
  8. For lo, thine enemies, O Lord, lo, thine enemies shall perish; *
    and all the workers of wickedness shall be destroyed.
  9. But my horn shall be exalted like the horn of an unicorn; *
    for I am anointed with fresh oil.
  10. Mine eye also shall see his lust of mine enemies, *
    and mine ear shall hear his desire of the wicked that arise up against me.
  11. The righteous shall flourish like a palm-tree, *
    and shall spread abroad like a cedar in Lebanon.
  12. Such as are planted in the house of the Lord, *
    shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God.
  13. They also shall bring forth more fruit in their age, *
    and shall be fat and well-liking;
  14. That they may show how true the Lord my strength is, *
    and that there is no unrighteousness in him.
