3 With the ten-stringed lute and with the harp, With resounding music upon the lyre.
4 For You, O LORD , have made me glad by what You have done, I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.
5 How great are Your works, O LORD ! Your thoughts are very deep.
6 A senseless man has no knowledge, Nor does a stupid man understand this:
7 That when the wicked sprouted up like grass And all who did iniquity flourished, It was only that they might be destroyed forevermore .
