1(92) A Psalm of a Song for the Sabbath -day. It is a good thing to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to your name, O you Most High;
1A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. It is a good thing to give thanks to Yahweh, to sing praises to your name, Most High,
2to proclaim your mercy in the morning, and your truth by night,
2to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night,
3on a lute of ten strings, with a song on the harp.
3with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the melody of the lyre.
4For you, O Lord, have made me glad with your work: and in the operations of your hands will I exult.
4For you, Yahweh, have made me glad through your work. I will triumph in the works of your hands.
5How have your works been magnified, O Lord! your thoughts are very deep.
5How great are your works, Yahweh! Your thoughts are very deep.
6A foolish man will not know, and a senseless man will not understand this.
6A senseless man doesn’t know, neither does a fool understand this:
7When the sinners spring up as the grass, and all the workers of iniquity have watched; [it is] that they may be utterly destroyed for ever.
7though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.
8But you, O Lord, are most high for ever.
8But you, Yahweh, are on high forever more.
9For , behold, your enemies shall perish; and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
9For behold, your enemies, Yahweh, for behold, your enemies shall perish. All the evildoers will be scattered.
10But my horn shall be exalted [as the horn] of a unicorn; and my old age with rich mercy.
10But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox. I am anointed with fresh oil.
11And my eye has seen my enemies, and my ear shall hear the wicked that rise up against me.
11My eye has also seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the wicked enemies who rise up against me.
12The righteous shall flourish as a palm tree: he shall be increased as the cedar in Libanus.
12The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree. He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
13They are planted in Yahweh’s house. They will flourish in our God’s courts.
