< 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 give thanks unto Jehovah, and to sing psalms unto thy name, O Most High;
2 To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
To declare thy loving-kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness in the nights,
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.
Upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the lute; upon the Higgaion with 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, hast 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!
Jehovah, how great are thy works! Thy thoughts are very deep:
6 A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern this: —
A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand it.
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 may be destroyed for ever.
8 But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
And thou, Jehovah, art 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 my horn shalt thou exalt like a buffalo's: I shall be 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 mine eye shall see [its desire] on mine enemies; mine ears shall hear [it] of the evil-doers that rise up against me.
12 The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;
The righteous shall shoot forth like a palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar on Lebanon.
13 They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;
Those that 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 are still vigorous in old age, they are full of sap and green;
15 To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
To shew that Jehovah is upright: [he is] my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
