Psalms 92
1 A Psalm, a Song, for the Sabbath day. It is good to give thanks unto Jehovah, and to sing psalms unto thy name, O Most High;
It is a good thing to yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to Adonai, to sing zahmar ·musical praise· to your name, Most High;
2 To declare thy loving-kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness in the nights,
to proclaim your chesed ·loving-kindness· in the morning, and your faithfulness every night,
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the lute; upon the Higgaion with the harp.
with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the lyre's solemn higgayon (meditation)
4 For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work; I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
For you, Adonai, have made me glad through your work. I will triumph in the works of your hands.
5 Jehovah, how great are thy works! Thy thoughts are very deep:
How great are your works, Adonai! Your thoughts are very deep.
6 A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand it.
A senseless man does not 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 may be destroyed for ever.
though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all those who practice vain striving of iniquity flourish, they will be destroyed forever.
8 And thou, Jehovah, art on high for evermore.
But you, Adonai, are on high forever more.
9 For lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
For, behold, your enemies, Adonai, for, behold, your enemies shall perish. All those who practice vain striving of iniquity will be scattered.
10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like a buffalo's: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox. I am anointed with fresh oil.
11 And mine eye shall see [its desire] on mine enemies; mine ears shall hear [it] of the evil-doers that rise up against me.
My eye has also seen my enemies. My ears have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· of the wicked enemies who rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall shoot forth like a palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar on Lebanon.
The upright shall flourish like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those that are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God:
They are planted in Adonai’s house. They will flourish in our God’s courts.
14 They are still vigorous in old age, they are full of sap and green;
They will still produce fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green,
15 To shew that Jehovah is upright: [he is] my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
to show that Adonai is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
