Psalm 92
92
Praise for the Lord's Goodness
A Psalm or Song for the sabbath day.
1 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord,
and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:
2to show forth thy loving-kindness in the morning,
and thy faithfulness every night,
3upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery;
upon the harp with a solemn sound.
4For thou, Lord, hast made me glad through thy work:
I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5O Lord, how great are thy works!
And thy thoughts are very deep.
6A brutish man knoweth not;
neither doth a fool understand this.
7When the wicked spring as the grass,
and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish;
it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
8but thou, Lord, art most high for evermore.
9For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord,
for, lo, thine enemies shall perish;
all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of a unicorn:
I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies,
and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
12The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree:
he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13Those that be planted in the house of the Lord
shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14They shall still bring forth fruit in old age;
they shall be fat and flourishing;
15to show that the Lord is upright:
he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

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.
