The Psalms

Psalm 92

A Psalm, a Song for the sabbath day.

 92:1It is a good thing to give thanks unto Jehovah,

 And to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High;

 92:2To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning,

 And thy faithfulness every night,

 92:3With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery;

 With a solemn sound upon the harp.

 92:4For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work:

 I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

 92:5How great are thy works, O Jehovah!

 Thy thoughts are very deep.

 92:6A brutish man knoweth not;

 Neither doth a fool understand this:

 92:7When the wicked spring as the grass,

 And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish;

 It is that they shall be destroyed for ever.

 92:8But thou, O Jehovah, art on high for evermore.

 92:9For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah,

 For, lo, thine enemies shall perish;

 All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

 92:10But my horn hast thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox:

 I am anointed with fresh oil.

 92:11Mine eye also hath seen my desire on mine enemies,

 Mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.

 92:12The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree:

 He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

 92:13They are planted in the house of Jehovah;

 They shall flourish in the courts of our God.

 92:14They shall still bring forth fruit in old age;

 They shall be full of sap and green:

 92:15To show that Jehovah is upright;

 He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
