Psalms 92

1 A Psalm. — A Song for the sabbath-day. Good to give thanks to Jehovah, And to sing praises to Thy name, O Most High,

A Psalm, a 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 kindness, And Thy faithfulness in the nights.

To declare Thy lovingkindness in the morning, and Thy faithfulness in the night seasons,

3 On ten strings and on psaltery, On (higgaion) with harp.

With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; with a solemn sound upon the harp.

4 For Thou hast caused me to rejoice, O Jehovah, in Thy work, Concerning the works of Thy hands I sing.

For Thou, LORD, hast made me glad through Thy work; I will exult in the works of Thy hands.

5 How great have been Thy works, O Jehovah, Very deep have been Thy thoughts.

How great are Thy works, O LORD! Thy thoughts are very deep.

6 A brutish man doth not know, And a fool understandeth not this; —

A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand this.

7 When the wicked flourish as a herb, And blossom do all workers of iniquity — For their being destroyed for ever and ever!

When the wicked spring up as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they may be destroyed for ever.

8 And Thou [art] high to the age, O Jehovah.

But Thou, O LORD, art on high for evermore.

9 For, lo, Thine enemies, O Jehovah, For, lo, Thine enemies, do perish, Separate themselves do all workers of iniquity.

For, lo, Thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, Thine enemies shall perish: all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10 And Thou exaltest as a reem my horn, I have been anointed with fresh oil.

But my horn hast Thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox; I am anointed with rich oil.

11 And mine eye looketh on mine enemies, Of those rising up against me, The evil doers, do mine ears hear.

Mine eye also hath gazed on them that lie in wait for me, mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.

12 The righteous as a palm-tree flourisheth, As a cedar in Lebanon he groweth.

The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 Those planted in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of our God do flourish.

Planted in the house of the LORD, they shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 Still they bring forth in old age, Fat and flourishing are they,

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be full of sap and richness;

15 To declare that upright [is] Jehovah my rock, And there is no perverseness in Him!

To declare that the LORD is upright, my Rock, in whom there is no unrighteousness.
