Psalm 92

Praise to the Lord for His love and faithfulness

A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day

[Psa 92:1-15 NET] 1 It is fitting to thank the LORD, and to sing praises to your name, O sovereign One! 2 It is fitting to proclaim your loyal love in the morning, and your faithfulness during the night, 3 to the accompaniment of a ten-stringed instrument and a lyre, to the accompaniment of the meditative tone of the harp. 4 For you, O LORD, have made me happy by your work. I will sing for joy because of what you have done.

5 How great are your works, O LORD! Your plans are very intricate! 6 The spiritually insensitive do not recognize this; the fool does not understand this. 7 When the wicked sprout up like grass, and all the evildoers glisten, it is so that they may be annihilated.

8 But you, O LORD, reign forever! 9 Indeed, look at your enemies, O LORD! Indeed, look at how your enemies perish! All the evildoers are scattered!

10 You exalt my horn like that of a wild ox. I am covered with fresh oil. 11 I gloat in triumph over those who tried to ambush me; I hear the defeated cries of the evil foes who attacked me.

12 The godly grow like a palm tree; they grow high like a cedar in Lebanon. 13 Planted in the LORD's house, they grow in the courts of our God. 14 They bear fruit even when they are old; they are filled with vitality and have many leaves. 15 So they proclaim that the LORD, my protector, is just and never unfair.
