Psalms 92

Psalm 92 ESV

1The Prophet exhorteth to praise God, 4for his great works, 6for his judgments on the wicked, 10and for his goodness to the godly.
A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.
1 1It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, 2O Most High;
2 to declare your 1steadfast love in 2the morning, and your 3faithfulness by 4night,
3 to the music of 1the lute and 2the harp, to the melody of 3the lyre.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your 1work; at 2the works of your hands I sing for joy.
5 How 1great are your works, O Lord! Your 2thoughts are very 3deep!
6 The stupid man cannot know; the fool cannot understand this:
7 that though 1the wicked sprout like grass and all 2evildoers flourish, they are doomed to destruction forever;
8 but you, O Lord, are 1on high forever.
9 For behold, your enemies, O Lord, for behold, your enemies shall perish; all evildoers shall be 1scattered.
10 But you have exalted my 1horn like that of 2the wild ox; you have 3poured over mea fresh oil.
11 My 1eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.
12 1The righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They are planted in the house of the Lord; they flourish in 1the courts of our God.
14 They still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green,
15 1to declare that the Lord is upright; he is my 2rock, and there is 3no unrighteousness in him.
