< Psalms 92 >

1 A Psalm of a Song for the Sabbath-day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to your name, O you Most High;
A Psalm. — A Song for the sabbath-day. Good to give thanks to Jehovah, And to sing praises to Thy name, O Most High,
2 to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,
To declare in the morning Thy kindness, And Thy faithfulness in the nights.
3 on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.
On ten strings and on psaltery, On (higgaion) with harp.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.
For Thou hast caused me to rejoice, O Jehovah, in Thy work, Concerning the works of Thy hands I sing.
5 How have your works been magnified, O Lord! your thoughts are very deep.
How great have been Thy works, O Jehovah, Very deep have been Thy thoughts.
6 A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.
A brutish man doth not know, And a fool understandeth not this; —
7 When the sinners spring up as the grass, and all the workers of iniquity have watched; [it is] that they may be utterly destroyed for ever.
When the wicked flourish as a herb, And blossom do all workers of iniquity — For their being destroyed for ever and ever!
8 But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.
And Thou [art] high to the age, O Jehovah.
9 For, behold, your enemies shall perish; and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
For, lo, Thine enemies, O Jehovah, For, lo, Thine enemies, do perish, Separate themselves do all workers of iniquity.
10 But my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and mine old age with rich mercy.
And Thou exaltest as a reem my horn, I have been anointed with fresh oil.
11 And mine eye has seen mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.
And mine eye looketh on mine enemies, Of those rising up against me, The evil doers, do mine ears hear.
12 The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.
The righteous as a palm-tree flourisheth, As a cedar in Lebanon he groweth.
13 They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
Those planted in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of our God do flourish.
14 Then shall they be increased in a fine old age; and they shall be prosperous; that they may declare
Still they bring forth in old age, Fat and flourishing are they,
15 that the Lord my God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
To declare that upright [is] Jehovah my rock, And there is no perverseness in Him!
