< Psalms 92 >

1 A Psalm of a Song for the Sabbath-day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to your name, O you Most High;
A Psalm [or] Song for the sabbath day. [It is a] good [thing] to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:
2 to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,
To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
3 on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.
For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5 How have your works been magnified, O Lord! your thoughts are very deep.
O LORD, how great are thy works! [and] thy thoughts are very deep.
6 A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.
A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
7 When 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.
When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; [it is] that they shall be destroyed for ever:
8 But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.
But thou, LORD, [art most] high for evermore.
9 For, behold, your enemies shall perish; and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and mine old age with rich mercy.
But my horn shalt thou exalt like [the horn of] an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11 And mine eye has seen mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.
Mine eye also shall see [my desire] on mine enemies, [and] mine ears shall hear [my desire] of the wicked that rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.
The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 Then shall they be increased in a fine old age; and they shall be prosperous; that they may declare
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
15 that the Lord my God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
To shew that the LORD [is] upright: [he is] my rock, and [there is] no unrighteousness in him.
