< Psalms 92 >
1 It is a good thing to give thanks to Jehovah, and to sing praises to thy name, O Most High,
A Psalm, a Song, for the Sabbath day. It is good to give thanks unto Jehovah, and to sing psalms unto thy name, O Most High;
2 to show forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
To declare thy loving-kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness in the nights,
3 with an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery, with a solemn sound upon the harp.
Upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the lute; upon the Higgaion with the harp.
4 For thou, Jehovah, have made me glad through thy work. I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work; I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5 How great are thy works, O Jehovah! Thy thoughts are very deep.
Jehovah, how great are thy works! Thy thoughts are very deep:
6 A brutish man knows not, nor does a fool understand this.
A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand it.
7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they shall be destroyed forever,
When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they may be destroyed for ever.
8 but thou, O Jehovah, are on high for evermore.
And thou, Jehovah, art on high for evermore.
9 For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish. All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
For lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But thou have exalted my horn like the wild ox's. I am anointed with fresh oil,
But my horn shalt thou exalt like a buffalo's: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11 and my eye has seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the evildoers who rise up against me.
And mine eye shall see [its desire] on mine enemies; mine ears shall hear [it] of the evil-doers that rise up against me.
12 A righteous man shall flourish like the palm tree. He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
The righteous shall shoot forth like a palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar on Lebanon.
13 Men who are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God.
Those that are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God:
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age. They shall be full of sap and green
They are still vigorous in old age, they are full of sap and green;
15 to show that Jehovah is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
To shew that Jehovah is upright: [he is] my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
