Psalms 92

1 A Canticle Psalm. On the day of the Sabbath. It is good to confess to the Lord and to sing psalms to your name, O Most High:

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,

2 to announce your mercy in the morning, and your truth throughout the night,

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

3 upon the ten strings, upon the psaltery, with a canticle, upon stringed instruments.

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

4 For you, O Lord, have delighted me with your doings, and I will exult in the works of your hands.

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

5 How great are your works, O Lord! Your thoughts have been made exceedingly deep.

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

6 A foolish man will not know these things, and a senseless one will not understand:

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

7 when sinners will have risen up like grass, and when all those who work iniquity will have appeared, that they shall pass away, age after age.

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

8 But you, O Lord, are the Most High for all eternity.

But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!

9 For behold your enemies, O Lord, for behold your enemies will perish, and all those who work iniquity will be dispersed.

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

10 And my horn will be exalted like that of the single-horned beast, and my old age will be exalted in fruitful mercy.

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

11 And my eye has looked down upon my enemies, and my ear will hear of the malignant rising up against me.

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

12 The just one will flourish like the palm tree. He will be multiplied like the cedar of Lebanon.

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

13 Those planted in the house of the Lord will flourish in the courts of the house of our God.

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

14 They will still be multiplied in a fruitful old age, and they will endure well,

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

15 so that they may announce that the Lord our God is righteous and that there is no iniquity in him.

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