< Psalms 92 >

1 A Psalm, a 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;
[A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.] It is a good thing to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praises to your name, Most High;
2 To declare Thy lovingkindness in the morning, and Thy faithfulness in the night seasons,
to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night,
3 With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; with a solemn sound upon the harp.
with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the melody of the lyre.
4 For Thou, LORD, hast made me glad through Thy work; I will exult in the works of Thy hands.
For you, LORD, have made me glad through your work. I will triumph in the works of your hands.
5 How great are Thy works, O LORD! Thy thoughts are very deep.
How great are your works, LORD. Your thoughts are very deep.
6 A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand this.
A senseless man doesn't know, neither does a fool understand this:
7 When the wicked spring up as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they may be destroyed for ever.
though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.
8 But Thou, O LORD, art on high for evermore.
But you, LORD, are on high forevermore.
9 For, lo, Thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, Thine enemies shall perish: all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
For, look, your enemies, LORD, for, look, your enemies shall perish. All the evildoers will be scattered.
10 But my horn hast Thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox; I am anointed with rich oil.
But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox. I am anointed with fresh oil.
11 Mine eye also hath gazed on them that lie in wait for me, mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.
My eye has also seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the wicked enemies who rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Planted in the house of the LORD, they shall flourish in the courts of our God.
They are planted in the LORD's house. They will flourish in our God's courts.
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be full of sap and richness;
They will still bring forth fruit in old age. They will be full of sap and green,
15 To declare that the LORD is upright, my Rock, in whom there is no unrighteousness.
to show that the LORD is upright. He is my Rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
