Psalm 92
A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.
1 It
is a good thing
to give thanks to
the LORD,
to sing praises
to your name, Most High,
2 to proclaim
your loving
kindness in
the morning,
and your faithfulness
every night,
3 with
the ten-stringed lute, with
the harp,
and with
the melody of
the lyre.
4 For
you, LORD,
have made me glad
through your work.
I will triumph in
the works of
your hands.
5 How great
are your works,
LORD!
Your thoughts are
very deep.
6 A senseless
man doesn’t know,
neither does a fool understand
this:
7 though
the wicked spring up as the grass,
and all
the evildoers flourish,
they will
be destroyed forever.
8 But
you, LORD, are
on high forever
more.
9 For behold,
your enemies, LORD,
for behold, your enemies
shall perish.
All the evildoers
will be scattered.
10 But
you have exalted
my horn like that
of the wild ox.
I am anointed
with fresh oil.
11 My eye has
also seen my enemies.
My ears have heard of
the wicked enemies who rise
up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish
like the palm tree.
He will grow like
a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They
are planted in the
LORD’s house.
They will flourish
in our God’s courts.
14 They
will still produce fruit in old age.
They will be full
of sap and green,
15 to
show that the
LORD is upright.
He is my rock,
and there is
no unrighteousness in
him.
