Psalms 92

New Jerusalem Bible	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.
