< Psalms 92 >

1 A Melody, a Song, For the Sabbath-day. It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, And to sing praises unto thy Name, O Most High;
It is a good thing to give thanks to Jehovah, and to sing praises to thy name, O Most High,
2 To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
to show forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.
with an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery, with a solemn sound upon the harp.
4 For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.
For thou, Jehovah, have made me glad through thy work. I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5 How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!
How great are thy works, O Jehovah! Thy thoughts are very deep.
6 A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern this: —
A brutish man knows not, nor does a fool understand this.
7 When the lawless do thrive like grass, And all the workers of iniquity have blossomed, It is that they may be destroyed for ever.
When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they shall be destroyed forever,
8 But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
but thou, O Jehovah, are on high for evermore.
9 For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;
For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish. All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But thou wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, I have been anointed, with fresh oil.
But thou have exalted my horn like the wild ox's. I am anointed with fresh oil,
11 So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.
and my eye has seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the evildoers who rise up against me.
12 The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;
A righteous man shall flourish like the palm tree. He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;
Men who are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:
They shall still bring forth fruit in old age. They shall be full of sap and green
15 To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
to show that Jehovah is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
