< 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;
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, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
to proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning and Your faithfulness at night
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.
with the ten-stringed harp and the melody of the lyre.
4 For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.
For You, O LORD, have made me glad by Your deeds; I sing for joy at the works of Your hands.
5 How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!
How great are Your works, O LORD, how deep are Your thoughts!
6 A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern this: —
A senseless man does not know, and a fool does not understand,
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.
that though the wicked sprout like grass, and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.
8 But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!
9 For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;
For surely Your enemies, O LORD, surely Your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.
10 But thou wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, 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 So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.
My eyes see the downfall of my enemies; my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.
12 The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;
The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;
Planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.
14 Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:
In old age they will still bear fruit; healthy and green they will remain,
15 To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
to proclaim, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock, and in Him there is no unrighteousness.”
