Psalms 92

1 “A psalm 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 show forth thy loving-kindness in the morning, And thy faithfulness every night,

3 Upon the ten-stringed instrument and the lute, Upon the harp with a solemn sound.

4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad by thy doings; In the works of thy hands I greatly rejoice!

5 How great are thy works, O LORD! How deep thy purposes!

6 But the unwise man knoweth not this, And the fool understandeth it not.

7 When the wicked spring up like grass, And all who practise iniquity flourish, It is but to be destroyed for ever!

8 Thou, O LORD! art for ever exalted!

9 For, lo! thine enemies, O LORD! For, lo! thine enemies perish, And dispersed are all who do iniquity!

10 But my horn thou exaltest like the buffalo's; I am anointed with fresh oil.

11 Mine eye hath gazed with joy upon mine enemies; Mine ears have heard with joy of my wicked adversaries.

12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree; They shall grow up like the cedars of Lebanon;

13 Planted in the house of the LORD, They shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 Even in old age they bring forth fruit; They are green, and full of sap;

15 To show that the LORD, my rock, is upright, That there is no unrighteousness in him.
