Psalm 92
Praise for the Lord’s Goodness.
A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath day.
1It is a good and delightful thing to give thanks to the Lord,
To sing praises to Your name, O Most High,
2To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning
And Your faithfulness by night,
3With an instrument of ten strings and with the harp,
With a solemn sound on the lyre.
4For You, O Lord, have made me glad by Your works;
At the works of Your hands I joyfully sing.
5¶How great are Your works, O Lord!
Your thoughts are very deep [beyond man’s understanding].
6A senseless man [in his crude and uncultivated state] knows nothing,
Nor does a [self-righteous] fool understand this:
7That though the wicked sprout up like grass
And all evildoers flourish,
They will be destroyed forever.
8But You, Lord, are on high forever.
9For behold, Your enemies, O Lord,
For behold, Your enemies will perish;
All who do evil will be scattered.
10¶But my horn [my emblem of strength and power] You have exalted like that of a wild ox;
I am anointed with fresh oil [for Your service].
11My eye has looked on my foes;
My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me.
12The righteous will flourish like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful];
They will grow like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable].
13Planted in the house of the Lord,
They will flourish in the courts of our God.
14[Growing in grace] they will still thrive and bear fruit and prosper in old age;
They will flourish and be #92:14 Lit fat and very green.vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment];
15[They are living memorials] to declare that the Lord is upright and faithful [to His promises];
He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him. [Rom 9:14]

Psalms 92
92
Psalm 92
A psalm; a song; for the day of rest—a holy day.
1It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to make music to praise your name, O Most High.
2It is good to announce your mercy in the morning
and your faithfulness in the evening
3on a ten-stringed instrument and a harp
and with a melody on a lyre.
4You made me find joy in what you have done, O Lord.
I will sing joyfully about the works of your hands.
5How spectacular are your works, O Lord!
How very deep are your thoughts!
6A stupid person cannot know
and a fool cannot understand
7that wicked people sprout like grass
and all troublemakers blossom ⌞like flowers⌟,
only to be destroyed forever.
8But you, O Lord, are highly honored forever.
9Now look at your enemies, O Lord.
Now look at your enemies.
They disappear, and all troublemakers are scattered.
10But you make me as strong as a wild bull,
and soothing lotion is poured on me.
11My eyes gloat over those who spy on me.
My ears hear ⌞the cries⌟ of evildoers attacking me.
12Righteous people flourish like palm trees
and grow tall like the cedars in Lebanon.
13They are planted in the Lord’s house.
They blossom in our God’s courtyards.
14Even when they are old, they still bear fruit.
They are always healthy and fresh.
15They make it known that the Lord is decent.
He is my rock.
He is never unfair.
