Psalms 92

NEW JERUSALEM	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
1 [Psalm Song For the Sabbath] It is good to give thanks to Yahweh, to make music for your name, MostHigh,	1 A Song for the Sabbath. It is good to give thanks to the LORD, to sing praises to thy name, O Most High;
2 to proclaim your faithful love at daybreak, and your constancy al through the night,	2 to declare thy steadfast love in the morning, and thy faithfulness by night,
3 on the lyre, the ten-stringed lyre, to the murmur of the harp.	3 to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre.
4 You have brought me joy, Yahweh, by your deeds, at the work of your hands I cry out,	4 For thou, O LORD, hast made me glad by thy work; at the works of thy hands I sing for joy.
5 'How great are your works, Yahweh, immensely deep your thoughts!'	5 How great are thy works, O LORD! Thy thoughts are very deep!
6 Stupid people cannot realise this, fools do not grasp it.	6 The dull man cannot know, the stupid cannot understand this:
7 The wicked may sprout like weeds, and every evil-doer flourish, but only to be eternally destroyed;	7 that, though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they are doomed to destruction for ever,
8 whereas you are supreme for ever, Yahweh.	8 but thou, O LORD, art on high for ever.
9 Look how your enemies perish, how all evil-doers are scattered!	9 For, lo, thy enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thy enemies shall perish; all evildoers shall be scattered.
10 You give me the strength of the wild ox, you anoint me with fresh oil;	10 But thou hast exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; thou hast poured over me fresh oil.
11 I caught sight of the ambush against me, overheard the plans of the wicked.	11 My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies, my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.
12 The upright wil flourish like the palm tree, will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.	12 The righteous flourish like the palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Planted in the house of Yahweh, they wil flourish in the courts of our God.	13 They are planted in the house of the LORD, they flourish in the courts of our God.
14 In old age they wil stil bear fruit, wil remain fresh and green,	14 They still bring forth fruit in old age, they are ever full of sap and green,
15 to proclaim Yahweh's integrity; my rock, in whom no fault can be found.	15 to show that the LORD is upright; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
