Psalm 92

1It is good to give thanks to the LORD,
   to sing praises to your name, O Most High; 2to declare your steadfast love in the morning,
   and your faithfulness by night, 3to the music of the lute and the harp,
   to the melody of the lyre. 4For you, O LORD, have made me glad by your work;
   at the works of your hands I sing for joy.

5How great are your works, O LORD!
   Your thoughts are very deep! 6The stupid man cannot know;
   the fool cannot understand this: 7that though the wicked sprout like grass
   and all evildoers flourish,
they are doomed to destruction forever; 8   but you, O LORD, are on high forever. 9For behold, your enemies, O LORD,
   for behold, your enemies shall perish;
   all evildoers shall be scattered.

10But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox;
   you have poured over meCompare Syriac; the meaning of the Hebrew is uncertain fresh oil. 11My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies;
   my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.

12The righteous flourish like the palm tree
   and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. 13They are planted in the house of the LORD;
   they flourish in the courts of our God. 14They still bear fruit in old age;
   they are ever full of sap and green, 15to declare that the LORD is upright;
   he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
