Psalms 92

1 “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:

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;

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

to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,

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

on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.

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

For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.

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

How have your works been magnified, O Lord! your thoughts are very deep.

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

A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.

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

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.

8 But thou art exalted to eternity, O Lord!

But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.

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

For, behold, your enemies shall perish; and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

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

But my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and mine old age with rich mercy.

11 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.

And mine eye has seen mine enemies, and mine ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.

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

The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.

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

They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.

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

Then shall they be increased in a fine old age; and they shall be prosperous; that they may declare

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

that the Lord my God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
