< 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 a good thing to give thanks to YHWH, to sing praises to your name, Most High;
2 to show forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night,
3 with an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery, with a solemn sound upon the harp.
with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the melody of the lyre.
4 For thou, Jehovah, have made me glad through thy work. I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
For you, YHWH, have made me glad through your work. I will triumph in the works of your hands.
5 How great are thy works, O Jehovah! Thy thoughts are very deep.
How great are your works, YHWH. Your thoughts are very deep.
6 A brutish man knows not, nor does a fool understand this.
A senseless man doesn't know, neither does a fool understand this:
7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they shall be destroyed forever,
though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.
8 but thou, O Jehovah, are on high for evermore.
But you, YHWH, are on high forevermore.
9 For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish. All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
For, look, your enemies, YHWH, for, look, your enemies shall perish. All the evildoers will be scattered.
10 But thou have exalted my horn like the wild ox's. I am anointed with fresh oil,
But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox. I am anointed with fresh oil.
11 and my eye has seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the evildoers who rise up against me.
My eye has also seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the wicked enemies who 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 flourish like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Men who are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God.
They are planted in YHWH's house. They will flourish in our God's courts.
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age. They shall be full of sap and green
They will still bring forth fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green,
15 to show that Jehovah is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
to show that YHWH is upright. He is my Rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
