Psalms 92:1-13 ▼

1 A Psalm, a Song for the sabbath day. It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:

2 To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,

3 With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery; with a solemn sound upon the harp.

4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

5 How great are thy works, O LORD! thy thoughts are very deep.

6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this:

7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:

8 But thou, O LORD, art on high for evermore.

9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10 But my horn hast thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox: I am anointed with fresh oil.

11 Mine eye also hath seen my desire on mine enemies, mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.

12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 They that are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.
