Psalms 91:1-10

¹A Psalm of a Song for the Sabbath-day.

²It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to thy name, O thou Most High;

³to proclaim thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth by night,

⁴on a psaltery of ten strings, with a song on the harp.

⁵For thou, O Lord, hast made me glad with thy work: and in the operations of thy hands will I exult.

⁶How have thy works been magnified, O Lord! thy thoughts are very deep.

⁷A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.

⁸When the sinners spring up as the grass, and all the workers of iniquity have watched; it is that they may be utterly destroyed for ever.

⁹But thou, O Lord, art most high for ever.

¹⁰For, behold, thine enemies shall perish; and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
