Psalms, 92

A melody, a song, for the sabbath day.

1 It is good to give thanks to Jehovah*1 And to make melody to your name, O Most High;

  1. See App 1C §8.

2 To tell in the morning about your loving-kindness And about your faithfulness during the nights,

3 Upon a ten-stringed instrument and upon the lute, By resounding music on the harp.

4 For you have made me rejoice, O Jehovah,*1 because of your activity; Because of the works of your hands I cry out joyfully.

  1. See App 1C §8.

5 How great your works are, O Jehovah!*1 Very deep your thoughts are.

  1. See App 1C §8.

6 No unreasoning man himself can know [them], And no one stupid can understand this.

7 When the wicked ones sprout as the vegetation And all the practicers of what is hurtful blossom forth, It is that they may be annihilated forever.

8 But you are on high to time indefinite, O Jehovah.*1

  1. See App 1C §8.

9 For, look! your enemies, O Jehovah,*1 For, look! your own enemies will perish; All the practicers of what is hurtful will be separated from one another.

  1. See App 1C §8.

10 But you will exalt my horn like that of a wild bull;*1 I shall moisten [myself]*2 with fresh oil.

  1. Or, “like that of a buffalo.” Heb., kir·ʼehmʹ; Gr., mo·no·keʹro·tos, “unicorn”; Lat., u·ni·corʹnis, “unicorn.” Vg also renders this Heb. word as “rhinoceros.” See Nu 23:22 ftn, “Bull.”

  2. “You have moistened me,” TSy.

11 And my eye will look on my foes;*1 My ears will hear about the very ones who rise up against me, the evildoers.

  1. “Foes,” LXXSyVg; M, “walls.”

12 The righteous himself will blossom forth as a palm tree does; As a cedar in Lebʹa·non does, he will grow big.

13 Those who are planted in the house of Jehovah, In the courtyards of our God, they will blossom forth.

14 They will still keep on thriving during gray-headedness, Fat and fresh they will continue to be,

15 To tell that Jehovah is upright. [He is] my Rock, in whom there is no unrighteousness.
