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,
Yahweh, it is good for people to thank you and to sing to praise you [MTY] who are greater than any other god.
2 To declare Your kindness in the morning, And Your faithfulness in the nights.
It is good to proclaim every morning that you faithfully love us, and each night [to sing songs that] declare that you always do what you have promised to do,
3 On ten strings and on stringed instrument, On (higgaion) with harp.
accompanied by [musicians playing] harps that have ten strings, and by the sounds made by a lyre.
4 For You have caused me to rejoice, O YHWH, in Your work, I sing concerning the works of Your hands.
Yahweh, you have caused me to be glad; I sing joyfully because of what you [SYN] have done.
5 How great Your works have been, O YHWH, Your thoughts have been very deep.
Yahweh, the things that you do are great! But it is difficult for us to understand [all] that you think.
6 A brutish man does not know, And a fool does not understand this—
There are things [that you do] that foolish people cannot know about, things that stupid people cannot understand.
7 When the wicked flourish as an herb, And all workers of iniquity blossom—For their being destroyed forever and ever!
They do not understand that although the number of wicked [people] increases [like blades of] grass do [SIM], and they prosper, they will be completely destroyed.
8 And You [are] high for all time, O YHWH.
But Yahweh, you [will] exalted/be honored/rule) forever.
9 For behold, Your enemies, O YHWH, For behold, Your enemies perish, All workers of iniquity separate themselves.
Yahweh, your enemies will [certainly] die, and those who do wicked things will be defeated/scattered.
10 And You exalt my horn as a wild ox, I have been anointed with fresh oil.
But you have caused me to be as strong [MTY] as [SIM] a wild ox; you have caused me to be very joyful [MTY].
11 And my eye looks on my enemies, Of those rising up against me, The evildoers, my ears hear.
I [SYN] have seen you defeat my enemies; d I have heard those evil men wail/scream while they were being slaughtered.
12 The righteous flourish as a palm-tree, He grows as a cedar in Lebanon.
But righteous [people] will prosper like [SIM] palm trees that grow well, or like [SIM] cedar [trees] that grow in Lebanon.
13 Those planted in the house of YHWH, In the courts of our God, flourish.
[They are like the trees] that grow near the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem], those trees that are close to the courtyard of the temple of our God.
14 Still they bring forth in old age, They are fat and flourishing,
[Even] when righteous people become old, they do many things [IDM] [that please God]. They remain strong and full of energy, [like trees that] [MET] remain full of sap.
15 To declare that YHWH my Rock [is] upright, And there is no perverseness in Him!
That shows that Yahweh is just; he is [like a huge] rock [under which I am safe/protected], and he never does anything that is wicked/wrong.
