Psalms 92


font
KING JAMES BIBLENEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:1 A psalm. A sabbath song.
2 To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,2 It is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praise to your name, Most High,
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.3 To proclaim your love in the morning, your faithfulness in the night,
4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.4 With the ten-stringed harp, with melody upon the lyre.
5 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.5 For you make me jubilant, LORD, by your deeds; at the works of your hands I shout for joy.
6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.6 How great are your works, LORD! How profound your purpose!
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:7 A senseless person cannot know this; a fool cannot comprehend.
8 But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.8 Though the wicked flourish like grass and all sinners thrive, They are destined for eternal destruction;
9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.9 for you, LORD, are forever on high.
10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.10 Indeed your enemies, LORD, indeed your enemies shall perish; all sinners shall be scattered.
11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.11 You have given me the strength of a wild bull; you have poured rich oil upon me.
12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.12 My eyes look with glee on my wicked enemies; my ears delight in the fall of my foes.
13 Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.13 The just shall flourish like the palm tree, shall grow like a cedar of Lebanon.
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;14 Planted in the house of the LORD, they shall flourish in the courts of our God.
15 To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.15 They shall bear fruit even in old age, always vigorous and sturdy,
16 As they proclaim: "The LORD is just; our rock, in whom there is no wrong."
