Psalmorum 92
1 Psalmus cantici, in die sabbati. Bonum est confiteri Domino, et psallere nomini tuo, Altissime:
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 ad annuntiandum mane misericordiam tuam, et veritatem tuam per noctem,
To declare, in the morning, thy lovingkindness, And thy faithfulness at night;
3 in decachordo, psalterio; cum cantico, in cithara.
Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon a harp, With resounding music on the lyre.
4 Quia delectasti me, Domine, in factura tua; et in operibus manuum tuarum exsultabo.
For thou hast made me glad, O Yahweh, in thy doing, In the works of thy hands, will I shout for joy.
5 Quam magnificata sunt opera tua, Domine! nimis profundæ factæ sunt cogitationes tuæ.
How great have grown thy works, Yahweh, [How] very deep are laid thy plans!
6 Vir insipiens non cognoscet, et stultus non intelliget hæc.
A man that is brutish, cannot know, And, a dullard, cannot discern this: —
7 Cum exorti fuerint peccatores sicut fœnum, et apparuerint omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, ut intereant in sæculum sæculi:
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 tu autem Altissimus in æternum, Domine.
But, thou, shalt be on high age-abidingly, O Yahweh.
9 Quoniam ecce inimici tui, Domine, quoniam ecce inimici tui peribunt; et dispergentur omnes qui operantur iniquitatem.
For lo! thine enemies, Yahweh, For lo! thine enemies, shall perish, They shall be scattered—all the workers of iniquity;
10 Et exaltabitur sicut unicornis cornu meum, et senectus mea in misericordia uberi.
But thou wilt exalt, as [those of] the buffalo, my horn, I have been anointed, with fresh oil.
11 Et despexit oculus meus inimicos meos, et in insurgentibus in me malignantibus audiet auris mea.
So hath mine eye descried them who were lying in wait for me, —Of my wicked assailants, mine ears, shall hear.
12 Justus ut palma florebit; sicut cedrus Libani multiplicabitur.
The righteous, like the palm-tree, shall thrive, Like the cedar in Lebanon, shall he grow;
13 Plantati in domo Domini, in atriis domus Dei nostri florebunt.
They who are planted in the house of Yahweh, In the courts of our God, shall flourish;
14 Adhuc multiplicabuntur in senecta uberi, et bene patientes erunt:
Still shall they bear fruit in old age, Vigorous and fresh, shall they be:
15 ut annuntient quoniam rectus Dominus Deus noster, et non est iniquitas in eo.
To declare that upright is Yahweh, My Rock, and no perversity in him.
