Psalms 92

1 A Melody, a Song, For the Sabbath-day. It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, And to sing praises unto thy Name, O Most High;

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;

2 To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;

to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,

3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.

on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.

4 For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.

For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.

5 How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!

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

6 A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern this: —

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

7 When the lawless do thrive like grass, And all the workers of iniquity have blossomed, It is that they may be destroyed for ever.

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.

8 But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.

But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.

9 For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;

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

10 But thou wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, I have been anointed, with fresh oil.

But my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and mine old age with rich mercy.

11 So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.

And mine eye has seen mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.

12 The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;

The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.

13 They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;

They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:

Then shall they be increased in a fine old age; and they shall be prosperous; that they may declare

15 To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.

that the Lord my God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
