Psalm 92
God’s Love and Faithfulness
A psalm. A song for the Sabbath day.
1It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
2to declare your faithful love in the morning
and your faithfulness at night,92:2 Ps 59:16; 89:1; Lm 3:22–23
3with a ten-stringed harp92:3 Or ten-stringed instrument and a harp
and the music of a lyre.92:3 Ps 33:2
4For you have made me rejoice, Lord,
by what you have done;
I will shout for joy
5How magnificent are your works, Lord,
6A stupid person does not know,
a fool does not understand this:92:6 Ps 73:22
7though the wicked sprout like grass92:7 Ps 103:15–16; Is 37:27; 40:6–7
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be eternally destroyed.92:7 Ps 37:1–2; 73:12–20; 90:5–6; Mal 4:1; Jms 1:10–11
9For indeed, Lord, your enemies —
indeed, your enemies will perish;
like that of a wild ox;
I have been anointed92:10 Syr reads you have anointed me with the finest oil.92:10 Ps 45:7
11My eyes look at my enemies;
when evildoers rise against me,
12The righteous thrive like a palm tree
13Planted in the house of the Lord,
they thrive in the courts of our God.92:13 Is 60:21
14They will still bear fruit in old age,
15to declare, “The Lord is just;
he is my rock,
