Psalms 92:1-13 ▼

1 A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praise to your name, Most High,

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

3 with a ten-stringed harp and the music of a lyre.

4 For you have made me rejoice, LORD, by what you have done; I will shout for joy because of the works of your hands.

5 How magnificent are your works, LORD, how profound your thoughts!

6 A stupid person does not know, a fool does not understand this:

7 though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be eternally destroyed.

8 But you, LORD, are exalted forever.

9 For indeed, LORD, your enemies — indeed, your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10 You have lifted up my horn like that of a wild ox; I have been anointed with the finest oil.

11 My eyes look at my enemies; when evildoers rise against me, my ears hear them.

12 The righteous thrive like a palm tree and grow like a cedar tree in Lebanon.

13 Planted in the house of the LORD, they thrive in the courts of our God.
