< Psalms 92 >
1 Yahweh, it is good for people to thank you and to sing to praise you [MTY] who are greater than any other god.
A Psalme or song for the Sabbath day. It is a good thing to praise the Lord, and to sing vnto thy Name, O most High,
2 It is good to proclaim every morning that you faithfully love us, and each night [to sing songs that] declare that you always do what you have promised to do,
To declare thy louing kindenesse in the morning, and thy trueth in the night,
3 accompanied by [musicians playing] harps that have ten strings, and by the sounds made by a lyre.
Vpon an instrument of tenne strings, and vpon the viole with the song vpon the harpe.
4 Yahweh, you have caused me to be glad; I sing joyfully because of what you [SYN] have done.
For thou, Lord, hast made mee glad by thy workes, and I wil reioyce in the workes of thine handes.
5 Yahweh, the things that you do are great! But it is difficult for us to understand [all] that you think.
O Lord, how glorious are thy workes! and thy thoughtes are very deepe.
6 There are things [that you do] that foolish people cannot know about, things that stupid people cannot understand.
An vnwise man knoweth it not, and a foole doeth not vnderstand this,
7 They do not understand that although the number of wicked [people] increases [like blades of] grass do [SIM], and they prosper, they will be completely destroyed.
(When the wicked growe as the grasse, and all the workers of wickednesse doe flourish) that they shall be destroyed for euer.
8 But Yahweh, you [will] exalted/be honored/rule) forever.
But thou, O Lord, art most High for euermore.
9 Yahweh, your enemies will [certainly] die, and those who do wicked things will be defeated/scattered.
For loe, thine enemies, O Lord: for loe, thine enemies shall perish: all the workers of iniquitie shall be destroyed.
10 But you have caused me to be as strong [MTY] as [SIM] a wild ox; you have caused me to be very joyful [MTY].
But thou shalt exalt mine horne, like the vnicornes, and I shalbe anoynted with fresh oyle.
11 I [SYN] have seen you defeat my enemies; d I have heard those evil men wail/scream while they were being slaughtered.
Mine eye also shall see my desire against mine enemies: and mine eares shall heare my wish against the wicked, that rise vp against me.
12 But righteous [people] will prosper like [SIM] palm trees that grow well, or like [SIM] cedar [trees] that grow in Lebanon.
The righteous shall flourish like a palme tree, and shall grow like a Cedar in Lebanon.
13 [They are like the trees] that grow near the temple of Yahweh [in Jerusalem], those trees that are close to the courtyard of the temple of our God.
Such as bee planted in the house of the Lord, shall flourish in the courtes of our God.
14 [Even] when righteous people become old, they do many things [IDM] [that please God]. They remain strong and full of energy, [like trees that] [MET] remain full of sap.
They shall still bring foorth fruite in their age: they shall be fat and flourishing,
15 That shows that Yahweh is just; he is [like a huge] rock [under which I am safe/protected], and he never does anything that is wicked/wrong.
To declare that the Lord my rocke is righteous, and that none iniquitie is in him.
