Psalm 92

Psalm 92^a

A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day.

¹It is good to praise the Lord

and make music^q to your name,^r O Most High,^s

²proclaiming your love in the morning^t

and your faithfulness at night,

³to the music of the ten-stringed lyre^u

and the melody of the harp.^v

⁴For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord;

I sing for joy^w at what your hands have done.^x

⁵How great are your works,^y Lord,

how profound your thoughts!^z

⁶Senseless people^a do not know,

fools do not understand,

⁷that though the wicked spring up like grass

and all evildoers flourish,

they will be destroyed forever.^b

⁸But you, Lord, are forever exalted.

⁹For surely your enemies^c, Lord,

surely your enemies will perish;

all evildoers will be scattered.^d

¹⁰You have exalted my horn^be like that of a wild ox;^f

fine oils^g have been poured on me.

¹¹My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries;

my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.^h

¹²The righteous will flourishⁱ like a palm tree,

they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;^j

¹³planted in the house of the Lord,

they will flourish in the courts of our God.^k

¹⁴They will still bear fruit^l in old age,

they will stay fresh and green,

¹⁵proclaiming, “The Lord is upright;

he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.^m”
