Psalms 92:1-13 ▼

1 A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to YHWH, and to sing praise to Your name, O Most High,

2 to declare in the morning Your loving devotion, and Your faithfulness in the nights,

3 on ten strings and on the harp, with a melody of the lyre.

4 For You have made me glad, O YHWH, by Your work; at the works of Your hands I shout for joy.

5 How great are Your works, O YHWH, how very deep Your thoughts!

6 A stupid man does not know, and a fool cannot understand this:

7 The wicked sprout like grass, and all the workers of iniquity blossom, to be destroyed forever and ever!

8 And You are on high forever, O YHWH!

9 For behold, Your enemies, O YHWH—for behold, Your enemies will perish; all the workers of iniquity will be scattered!

10 But You have lifted high my horn like that of a wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil.

11 And my eye has looked on my enemies; of those rising up against me, those doing evil, my ears hear.

12 The righteous one will sprout like a palm tree; like a cedar in Lebanon he will grow.

13 Those planted in the house of YHWH, in the courts of our God, they will sprout.
