Psalm 92
How Great Are Your Works!
verse 1A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.
It is good to praise the LORD,
and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High,
verse 2to proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning
and Your faithfulness at night
verse 3with the ten-stringed harp
and the melody of the lyre.
verse 4For You, O LORD, have made me glad by Your deeds;
I sing for joy at the works of Your hands.
verse 5How great are Your works, O LORD,
how deep are Your thoughts!
verse 6A senseless man does not know,
and a fool does not understand,
verse 7that though the wicked sprout like grass,
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be forever destroyed.
verse 8But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!
verse 9For surely Your enemies, O LORD,
surely Your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.
verse 10But You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox;
with fine oil I have been anointed.
verse 11My eyes see the downfall of my enemies;
my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.a
verse 12The righteous will flourish like a palm tree,
and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
verse 13Planted in the house of the LORD,
they will flourish in the courts of our God.
verse 14In old age they will still bear fruit;
healthy and green they will remain,
verse 15to proclaim, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock,
and in Him there is no unrighteousness.”
