Psalm 92–93

Psalm 92

GOD’S LOVE AND FAITHFULNESS

A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.

¹It is good to give thanks to the Lord,

to sing praise to your name, Most High,ⁱ

²to declare your faithful love in the morning

and your faithfulness at night,^j

³with a ten-stringed harp^A

and the music of a lyre.^k

⁴For you have made me rejoice, Lord,

by what you have done;

I will shout for joy

because of the works of your hands.^l

⁵How magnificent are your works, Lord,

how profound your thoughts!^m

⁶A stupid person does not know,

a fool does not understand this:ⁿ

⁷though the wicked sprout like grass^*

and all evildoers flourish,

they will be eternally destroyed.^o

⁸But you, Lord, are exalted forever.^p

⁹For indeed, Lord, your enemies—

indeed, your enemies will perish;

all evildoers will be scattered.^q

¹⁰You have lifted up my horn^r

like that of a wild ox;

I have been anointed^B with the finest oil.^s

¹¹My eyes look at my enemies;

when evildoers rise against me,

my ears hear them.^t

¹²The righteous thrive like a palm tree

and grow like a cedar tree in Lebanon.^u

¹³Planted in the house of the Lord,

they thrive in the courts of our God.^v

¹⁴They will still bear fruit in old age,

healthy and green,^w

¹⁵to declare, “The Lord is just;

he is my rock,

and there is no unrighteousness in him.”^x

Psalm 93

GOD’S ETERNAL REIGN

¹The Lord reigns! He is robed in majesty;

the Lord is robed, enveloped in strength.

The world is firmly established;

it cannot be shaken.^y

²Your throne has been established

from the beginning;^C

you are from eternity.^z

³The floods have lifted up, Lord,

the floods have lifted up their voice;

the floods lift up their pounding waves.^aa

⁴Greater than the roar of a huge torrent—

the mighty breakers of the sea—

the Lord on high is majestic.^ab

⁵Lord, your testimonies are completely reliable;^ac

holiness adorns your house

for all the days to come.^ad
