Psalm 92²⁶

A psalm; a song for the Sabbath day
92:1 It is fitting¹ to thank the LORD,
and to sing praises to your name, O Sovereign One!²
92:2 It is fitting³ to proclaim your loyal love in the morning,
and your faithfulness during the night,
92:3 to the accompaniment of a ten stringed instrument and a lyre,
to the accompaniment of the meditative tone of the harp.
92:4 For you, O LORD, have made me happy by your work.
I will sing for joy because of what you have done.⁴
92:5 How great are your works, O LORD!
Your plans are very intricate!⁵
92:6 The spiritually insensitive do not recognize this,
the fool does not understand this.⁶
92:7 When the wicked sprout up like grass,
and all the evildoers glisten,⁷
it is so that they may be annihilated.⁸
92:8 But you, O LORD, reign⁹ forever!
92:9 Indeed,¹⁰ look at your enemies, O LORD!
Indeed,¹¹ look at how your enemies perish!
All the evildoers are scattered!
92:10 You have exalt my horn like that of a wild ox.¹²
I am covered¹³ with fresh oil.
92:11 I gloat in triumph over those who tried to ambush me,¹⁴
I hear the defeated cries of the evil men who attacked me.¹⁵
92:12 The godly¹⁶ grow like a palm tree,
they grow high like a cedar in Lebanon.¹⁷
92:13 Planted in the LORD’s house,
they grow in the courts of our God.
92:14 They bear fruit even when they are old,
they are filled with vitality and have many leaves.¹⁸
92:15 So they proclaim that the LORD, my protector,
is just and never unfair.¹⁹
