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 declare Thy lovingkindness in the morning, And Thy faithfulness in the night seasons,

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 exult 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 up as the grass, And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; It is that they may 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 rich oil.

11 Mine eye also hath gazed on them that lie in wait for me, 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 Planted in the house of the LORD, They shall flourish in the courts of our God.
