A Psalm song for the sabbath day.
It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to your name, O Most high!
To declare your loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the harp, to the melody of the lyre.
Above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the sea, the Lord on high is mighty.
Your testimonies are very sure, holiness becomes your house, O Lord, for evermore. |

A Song for the Sabbath day
set to music.
It is good to give thanks to You, Yah.
O transcendent One!
We sing praises to Your name.
We affirm Your caring every morning
and Your constancy every night,
Upon a ten string guitar -
Our ten spirit rungs
and upon the harp,
meditating to the tune of the lute
our soul’s light.
The currents raise their roar -
the rivers raise the spumes,
The mighty torrents' thunder;
The thunder of the ocean’s breakers:
All exclaim, ‘Most powerful are You, Yah!’
Oh, Yah!
Your creation witnesses You well.
Of sacred beauty is Your house--
-- through all of time.

A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.
It is a good thing to give thanks to Yahweh,
to sing praises to your name, Most High;
to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning,
and your faithfulness every night,
with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp,
and with the melody of the lyre.
The floods lift up their waves.
Above the voices of many waters,
the mighty breakers of the sea,
Yahweh on high is mighty.
Your statutes stand firm.
Holiness adorns your house,
Yahweh, forevermore. |
