Psalms 92

1 A Psalme or song for the Sabbath day. It is a good thing to praise the Lord, and to sing vnto thy Name, O most High,

“A psalm or song for the sabbath day.” It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:

2 To declare thy louing kindenesse in the morning, and thy trueth in the night,

To tell in the morning of thy kindness, and of thy faithfulness in the nights.

3 Vpon an instrument of tenne strings, and vpon the viole with the song vpon the harpe.

Upon a ten-stringed instrument, and upon the psaltery; and with the sweet sound of the harp.

4 For thou, Lord, hast made mee glad by thy workes, and I wil reioyce in the workes of thine handes.

For thou hast caused me to rejoice, O Lord, through thy doing: because of the works of thy hands will I triumph.

5 O Lord, how glorious are thy workes! and thy thoughtes are very deepe.

How great are thy works, O Lord! exceedingly profound are thy thoughts.

6 An vnwise man knoweth it not, and a foole doeth not vnderstand this,

A brutish man knoweth it not, and a fool cannot understand this.

7 (When the wicked growe as the grasse, and all the workers of wickednesse doe flourish) that they shall be destroyed for euer.

When the wicked spring up like herbs, and when all the workers of wickedness do flourish; it is that they may be destroyed evermore.

8 But thou, O Lord, art most High for euermore.

But thou art exalted to eternity, O Lord!

9 For loe, thine enemies, O Lord: for loe, thine enemies shall perish: all the workers of iniquitie shall be destroyed.

For, lo, thy enemies, O Lord, for, lo, thy enemies shall perish: all the workers of wickedness shall be scattered.

10 But thou shalt exalt mine horne, like the vnicornes, and I shalbe anoynted with fresh oyle.

But thou exaltest my horn like that of a reem: I am anointed with fresh oil.

11 Mine eye also shall see my desire against mine enemies: and mine eares shall heare my wish against the wicked, that rise vp against me.

And my eye looketh on [the punishment of] those that regard me with envy: of the evildoers that rise up against me my ears shall bear it.

12 The righteous shall flourish like a palme tree, and shall grow like a Cedar in Lebanon.

The righteous shall spring up like the palm-tree: like a cedar in Lebanon shall he grow high.

13 Such as bee planted in the house of the Lord, shall flourish in the courtes of our God.

Planted in the house of the Lord, in the courts of our God shall they spring up.

14 They shall still bring foorth fruite in their age: they shall be fat and flourishing,

They shall still flourish in high old age; they shall be vigorous and covered with foliage;

15 To declare that the Lord my rocke is righteous, and that none iniquitie is in him.

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