Psalms 92

Praise for Jehovah’s goodness.

A Psalm, a Song for the sabbath day.

¹It is a good thing to give thanks unto Jehovah, And to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High;

²To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, And thy faithfulness every night,

³With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; With a solemn sound upon the harp.

⁴For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

⁵How great are thy works, O Jehovah! 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, O 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 hast thou exalted like [the horn of] the wild-ox: I am anointed with fresh oil.

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.

¹²The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree: He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

¹³They are planted in the house of Jehovah; They shall flourish in the courts of our God.

¹⁴They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; They shall be full of sap and green:

¹⁵To show that Jehovah is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
