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 [or] Song 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 tell in the morning of thy kindness, and of thy faithfulness in the nights.

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

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

Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.

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

For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

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

O LORD, how great are thy works! [and] thy thoughts are very deep.

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

A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool 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 wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; [it is] that they shall be destroyed for ever:

8 But thou art exalted to eternity, O Lord!

But thou, LORD, [art most] high for evermore.

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

For lo, thy enemies, O LORD, for lo, thy enemies shall perish; 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 shalt thou exalt like [the horn of] an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

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.

My eye also shall see [my desire] on my enemies, [and] my ears shall hear [my desire] of 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 like the palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

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

Those 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;

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

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

To show that the LORD [is] upright: [he is] my rock, and [there is] no unrighteousness in him.
