< Psalms 92 >
1 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;
It is a good thing to give thanks to Jehovah, and to sing praises to thy name, O Most High,
2 to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,
to show forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
3 on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.
with an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery, with a solemn sound upon the harp.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.
For thou, Jehovah, have made me glad through thy work. I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5 How have your works been magnified, O Lord! your thoughts are very deep.
How great are thy works, O Jehovah! Thy thoughts are very deep.
6 A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.
A brutish man knows not, nor does a fool understand this.
7 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.
When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they shall be destroyed forever,
8 But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.
but thou, O Jehovah, are on high for evermore.
9 For, behold, your enemies shall perish; and 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 my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and mine old age with rich mercy.
But thou have exalted my horn like the wild ox's. I am anointed with fresh oil,
11 And mine eye has seen mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.
and my eye has seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the evildoers who rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.
A righteous man shall flourish like the palm tree. He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
Men who are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 Then shall they be increased in a fine old age; and they shall be prosperous; that they may declare
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age. They shall be full of sap and green
15 that the Lord my God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
to show that Jehovah is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
