PSALM 92
A Psalm, a Song, for the Sabbath day.
1It is good to give thanks unto Jehovah, and to sing psalms unto thy name, O Most High; 2To declare thy loving-kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness in the nights, 3Upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the lute; upon the Higgaion with the harp. 4For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work; I will triumph in the works of thy hands. 5Jehovah, how great are thy works! Thy thoughts are very deep: 6A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand it.
7When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they may be destroyed for ever. 8And thou, Jehovah, art on high for evermore. 9For lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered. 10But my horn shalt thou exalt like a buffalo's: I shall be anointed with fresh oil. 11And mine eye shall see its desire on mine enemies; mine ears shall hear it of the evil-doers that rise up against me. 12The righteous shall shoot forth like a palm-tree; he shall grow like a cedar on Lebanon. 13Those that are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God#GodHebrew: Elohim 14They are still vigorous in old age, they are full of sap and green; 15To shew that Jehovah is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Psalm 92
A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.
1It is good to give thanks to the LORD,
to sing praises to your name, Most High;
2to proclaim your loyal love in the morning,
your faithfulness at nighttime
3with the ten-stringed harp,
with the melody of the lyre
4because you’ve made me happy, LORD,
by your acts.
I sing with joy because of your handiwork.
5How awesome are your works, LORD!
Your thoughts are so deep!
6Ignorant people don’t know—
fools don’t understand this:
7though the wicked spring up like grass
and all evildoers seem to blossom,
they do so only to be destroyed forever.
8But you, LORD, are exalted forever!
9Look at your enemies, LORD!
Look at how your enemies die,
how all evildoers are scattered abroad!
10But you’ve made me as strong as a wild ox.
I’m soaked in precious ointment.
11My eyes have seen my enemies’ defeat;
my ears have heard the downfall of my evil foes.
12The righteous will spring up like a palm tree.
They will grow strong like a cedar of Lebanon.
13Those who have been replanted in the LORD’s house
will spring up in the courtyards of our God.
14They will bear fruit even when old and gray;
they will remain lush and fresh 15in order to proclaim:
“The LORD is righteous.
He’s my rock.
There’s nothing unrighteous in him.”
