92:1 A song for the Sabbath Day. How good it is to give thanks to the Eternal and to praise Your name with song, O Most High;
92:2 To speak of Your unfailing love in the morning and rehearse Your faithfulness as night begins to fall.
92:3 How good it is to praise to the sound of strings—lute and harp— the stirring melodies of the lyre.
92:4 Because You, O Eternal One, thrill me with the things You have done, I will sing with joy in light of Your deeds.
92:5 Your works are marvelous, O Eternal One! Your thoughts are unfathomable.
92:6 But a weak-minded man can’t understand this; foolish people are unable to see
92:7 That evil men sprout like grass and wicked men flourish, only so that they will be doomed forever.
92:8 But You, O Eternal One, are above all, forever.
92:9 As for Your enemies, O Eternal One, their fate is obvious: those who hate You will not survive; those who practice evil will be broken in pieces.
92:10 But You have made me strong as a wild ox, anointed me with the refreshing oil of Your blessing.
92:11 And I have seen with my own eyes my enemies defeated; I have heard with my own ears my attackers cut down.
92:12 Those who are devoted to God will flourish like budding date-palm trees; they will grow strong and tall like cedars in Lebanon.
92:13 Those planted in the house of the Eternal will thrive in the courts of our God.
92:14 They will bear fruit into old age; even in winter, they will be green and full of sap
92:15 To display that the Eternal is righteous. He is my rock, and there is no shadow of evil in Him.
