Psalms 92

1 A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praises to your name, Most High,

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 loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night,

To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,

3 with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the melody of the lyre.

Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.

4 For you, LORD, have made me glad through your work. I will triumph in the works of your hands.

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, LORD! Your thoughts are very deep.

O Lord, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.

6 A senseless man does not know, neither does a fool understand this:

A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.

7 though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed 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, LORD, are on high forever more.

But thou, Lord, art most high for evermore.

9 For behold, your enemies, LORD, for behold, your enemies shall perish. All the evildoers will be scattered.

For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10 But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox. I am anointed with fresh oil.

But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

11 My eye has also seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the wicked enemies who 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 like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 They are planted in the LORD’s house. They will flourish in our God’s courts.

Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 They will still produce fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green,

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

15 to show that the LORD is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

To shew that the Lord is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
