Psalm 92

A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.

1It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, to sing praises to your name, Most High,

2to declare your steadfast love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,

3on the ten-stringed instrument and on the harp, with the melody of the lyre.

4For you have made me glad, Yahweh, by what you have done; I sing for joy at the works of your hands.

5How great are your works, Yahweh! How very deep are your thoughts!

6The senseless person does not know; the fool does not understand this:

7though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.

8But you, Yahweh, are exalted forever.

9For look, your enemies, Yahweh—look, your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10But you have lifted up my horn like that of a wild ox; I am anointed with fresh oil.

11My eyes have looked in triumph on my enemies; my ears have heard the downfall of the evildoers who rise against me.

12The righteous will flourish like a palm tree; they will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13Planted in the house of Yahweh, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

14They will still bear fruit in old age; they will stay fresh and green,

15to declare that Yahweh is upright; he is my rock, and there is no wrong in him.
