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 for the Sabbath-day.” It is a good thing to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to thy name, O Most High!

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

To show forth thy loving-kindness in the morning, And thy faithfulness every night,

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

Upon the ten-stringed instrument and the lute, Upon the harp with a solemn sound.

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

For thou, LORD, hast made me glad by thy doings; In the works of thy hands I greatly rejoice!

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

How great are thy works, O LORD! How deep thy purposes!

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

But the unwise man knoweth not this, And the fool understandeth it not.

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 grass, And all who practise iniquity flourish, It is but to be destroyed for ever!

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

Thou, O LORD! art for ever exalted!

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

For, lo! thine enemies, O LORD! For, lo! thine enemies perish, And dispersed are all who do iniquity!

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

But my horn thou exaltest like the buffalo's; 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.

Mine eye hath gazed with joy upon mine enemies; Mine ears have heard with joy of my wicked adversaries.

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

The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree; They shall grow up like the cedars of Lebanon;

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, They shall flourish in the courts of our God.

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

Even in old age they bring forth fruit; They are green, and full of sap;

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

To show that the LORD, my rock, is upright, That there is no unrighteousness in him.
