Psalms 92

1 A PSALM. A SONG FOR THE SABBATH DAY. [It is] good to give thanks to YHWH, And to sing praises to Your Name, O Most High,

A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. It is good to praise the LORD, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High,

2 To declare Your kindness in the morning, And Your faithfulness in the nights.

to proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning and Your faithfulness at night

3 On ten strings and on stringed instrument, On (higgaion) with harp.

with the ten-stringed harp and the melody of the lyre.

4 For You have caused me to rejoice, O YHWH, in Your work, I sing concerning the works of Your hands.

For You, O LORD, have made me glad by Your deeds; I sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

5 How great Your works have been, O YHWH, Your thoughts have been very deep.

How great are Your works, O LORD, how deep are Your thoughts!

6 A brutish man does not know, And a fool does not understand this—

A senseless man does not know, and a fool does not understand,

7 When the wicked flourish as an herb, And all workers of iniquity blossom—For their being destroyed forever and ever!

that though the wicked sprout like grass, and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.

8 And You [are] high for all time, O YHWH.

But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!

9 For behold, Your enemies, O YHWH, For behold, Your enemies perish, All workers of iniquity separate themselves.

For surely Your enemies, O LORD, surely Your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10 And You exalt my horn as a wild ox, I have been anointed with fresh oil.

But You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; with fine oil I have been anointed.

11 And my eye looks on my enemies, Of those rising up against me, The evildoers, my ears hear.

My eyes see the downfall of my enemies; my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.

12 The righteous flourish as a palm-tree, He grows as a cedar in Lebanon.

The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 Those planted in the house of YHWH, In the courts of our God, flourish.

Planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

14 Still they bring forth in old age, They are fat and flourishing,

In old age they will still bear fruit; healthy and green they will remain,

15 To declare that YHWH my Rock [is] upright, And there is no perverseness in Him!

to proclaim, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock, and in Him there is no unrighteousness.”
