Psalm 92 - Modern English Version

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath day.

¹ It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High,

² to declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, and Your faithfulness in the night,

³ with the ten-stringed lute and with the harp, and on the lyre with a solemn sound.

⁴ For You, O  Lord, have made me glad through Your work; I will sing joyfully at the works of Your hands.

⁵ O  Lord, how great are Your works! Your thoughts are very deep!

⁶ A brutish man does not know, nor does a fool understand this:

⁷ that though the wicked spring up like grass and though all the workers of iniquity flourish, they will be destroyed forever:

⁸ But You, O  Lord, are on high forever.

⁹ For behold, Your enemies, O  Lord, for behold, Your enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

¹⁰ But You have exalted my horn like the horn of the wild ox; You have anointed me with fresh oil.

¹¹ My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies, and my ears have heard the doom of my wicked adversaries.

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

¹³ Those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.

¹⁴ They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be healthy and flourishing,

¹⁵ to declare that the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
