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

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

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

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

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 with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

10 And You exalt my horn as a wild ox, I have been 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 looks on my enemies, Of those rising up against me, The evildoers, my ears hear.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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