< Psalms 92 >
1 IT IS A GOOD THING TO GIVE THANKS UNTO THE LORD, AND TO SING PRAISES UNTO Your NAME, O MOST HIGH:
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;
2 To show forth your loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night,
To declare Thy lovingkindness in the morning, and Thy faithfulness in the night seasons,
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.
With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; with a solemn sound upon the harp.
4 For you, LORD, have made me glad through your work: I will triumph in the works of your hands.
For Thou, LORD, hast made me glad through Thy work; I will exult in the works of Thy hands.
5 O LORD, how great are your works! and your thoughts are very deep.
How great are Thy works, O LORD! Thy thoughts are very deep.
6 A brutish man knows not; neither does a fool understand this.
A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand this.
7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
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.
8 But you, LORD, are most high for evermore.
But Thou, O LORD, art on high for evermore.
9 For, lo, your enemies, O LORD, for, lo, your enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
For, lo, Thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, Thine enemies shall perish: all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn shall you exalt like the horn of an unicorn (ox): I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
But my horn hast Thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox; I am anointed with rich oil.
11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
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.
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 shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.
Planted in the house of the LORD, they shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be full of sap and richness;
15 To show that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
To declare that the LORD is upright, my Rock, in whom there is no unrighteousness.
