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 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 To declare in the morning Thy kindness, And Thy faithfulness in the nights.

To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;

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

Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.

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

For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.

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

How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!

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

A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern 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 lawless do thrive like grass, And all the workers of iniquity have blossomed, It is that they may be destroyed for ever.

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

But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.

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

For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;

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

But thou wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, I have been anointed, with fresh oil.

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

So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.

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

The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;

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

They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;

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

Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:

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

To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
