Psalms 92

1 A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. It is good to praise the LORD, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High,

Yahweh, it is good for people to thank you and to sing to praise you [MTY] who are greater than any other god.

2 to proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning and Your faithfulness at night

It is good to proclaim every morning that you faithfully love us, and each night [to sing songs that] declare that you always do what you have promised to do,

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

accompanied by [musicians playing] harps that have ten strings, and by the sounds made by a lyre.

4 For You, O LORD, have made me glad by Your deeds; I sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

Yahweh, you have caused me to be glad; I sing joyfully because of what you [SYN] have done.

5 How great are Your works, O LORD, how deep are Your thoughts!

Yahweh, the things that you do are great! But it is difficult for us to understand [all] that you think.

6 A senseless man does not know, and a fool does not understand,

There are things [that you do] that foolish people cannot know about, things that stupid people cannot understand.

7 that though the wicked sprout like grass, and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.

They do not understand that although the number of wicked [people] increases [like blades of] grass do [SIM], and they prosper, they will be completely destroyed.

8 But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!

But Yahweh, you [will] exalted/be honored/rule) forever.

9 For surely Your enemies, O LORD, surely Your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

Yahweh, your enemies will [certainly] die, and those who do wicked things will be defeated/scattered.

10 But You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; with fine oil I have been anointed.

But you have caused me to be as strong [MTY] as [SIM] a wild ox; you have caused me to be very joyful [MTY].

11 My eyes see the downfall of my enemies; my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.

I [SYN] have seen you defeat my enemies; d I have heard those evil men wail/scream while they were being slaughtered.

12 The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

But righteous [people] will prosper like [SIM] palm trees that grow well, or like [SIM] cedar [trees] that grow in Lebanon.

13 Planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

[They are like the trees] that grow near the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem], those trees that are close to the courtyard of the temple of our God.

14 In old age they will still bear fruit; healthy and green they will remain,

[Even] when righteous people become old, they do many things [IDM] [that please God]. They remain strong and full of energy, [like trees that] [MET] remain full of sap.

15 to proclaim, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock, and in Him there is no unrighteousness.”

That shows that Yahweh is just; he is [like a huge] rock [under which I am safe/protected], and he never does anything that is wicked/wrong.
