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 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;
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, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
3 accompanied by [musicians playing] harps that have ten strings, and by the sounds made by a lyre.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.
4 Yahweh, you have caused me to be glad; I sing joyfully because of what you [SYN] have done.
For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.
5 Yahweh, the things that you do are great! But it is difficult for us to understand [all] that you think.
How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!
6 There are things [that you do] that foolish people cannot know about, things that stupid people cannot understand.
A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern 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 lawless do thrive like grass, And all the workers of iniquity have blossomed, It is that they may be destroyed for ever.
8 But Yahweh, you [will] exalted/be honored/rule) forever.
But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
9 Yahweh, your enemies will [certainly] die, and those who do wicked things will be defeated/scattered.
For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;
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 wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, I have been anointed, with fresh oil.
11 I [SYN] have seen you defeat my enemies; d I have heard those evil men wail/scream while they were being slaughtered.
So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.
12 But righteous [people] will prosper like [SIM] palm trees that grow well, or like [SIM] cedar [trees] that grow in Lebanon.
The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;
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.
They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;
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.
Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:
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 upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
