< 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 [or] Song for the sabbath day. [It is a] good [thing] to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:
2 To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
To shew forth thy lovingkindness 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.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.
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, LORD, 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!
O LORD, how great are thy works! [and] 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 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 do flourish; [it is] that they shall be destroyed for ever:
8 But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
But thou, LORD, [art most] 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 LORD, 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 [the horn of] an unicorn: 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.
Mine eye also shall see [my desire] on mine enemies, [and] mine ears shall hear [my desire] of the wicked 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 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;
Those that be planted in the house of the LORD 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 fat and flourishing;
15 To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
To shew that the LORD [is] upright: [he is] my rock, and [there is] no unrighteousness in him.
