< Psalms 92 >

1 A psalm. A song; for the sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praise to your name, O Most High,
A Psalm [or] Song for the sabbath day. [It is a] good [thing] to give thanks to the LORD, and to sing praises to thy name, O Most High.
2 to declare your love in the morning, and your faithfulness in the night,
To show forth thy loving-kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night.
3 with voice and a ten-stringed harp, with music that throbs on the lyre.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.
4 For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord, at the work of your hands I will ring out my joy.
For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5 How great are your works, O Lord; how deep are your thoughts!
O LORD, how great are thy works! [and] thy thoughts are very deep.
6 The insensitive cannot know, nor can a fool understand,
A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
7 that, though the wicked flourish like grass, and evildoers all blossom, they will perish forever.
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 are exalted forever.
But thou, LORD, [art most] high for evermore.
9 For see! Your enemies, Lord For see! Your enemies perish, all evildoers are scattered.
For lo, thy enemies, O LORD, for lo, thy enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But you lift me to honour, and anoint me afresh with oil.
But my horn shalt thou exalt like [the horn of] an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11 My eyes will feast on my foes, and my ears will hear of the doom of the wicked.
My eye also shall see [my desire] on my enemies, [and] my ears shall hear [my desire] of the wicked that rise up against me.
12 The righteous will sprout like the palm, will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.
The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 In the house of the Lord are they planted, in the courts of our God they will sprout.
Those that are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They will still bear fruit in old age, all sappy and fresh will they be
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
15 So they proclaim the Lord to be just, my rock, in whom is no wrong.
To show that the LORD [is] upright: [he is] my rock, and [there is] no unrighteousness in him.
