92:1 How good it is to give thanks to you, O LORD, to sing in your honor, O Most High God, |
92:2 to proclaim your constant love every morning and your faithfulness every night, |
92:3 with the music of stringed instruments and with melody on the harp. |
92:4 Your mighty deeds, O LORD, make me glad; because of what you have done, I sing for joy. |
92:5 How great are your actions, LORD! How deep are your thoughts! |
92:6 This is something a fool cannot know; someone who is stupid cannot understand: |
92:7 the wicked may grow like weeds, those who do wrong may prosper; yet they will be totally destroyed, |
92:8 because you, LORD, are supreme forever. |
92:9 We know that your enemies will die, and all the wicked will be defeated. |
92:10 You have made me as strong as a wild ox; you have blessed me with happiness. |
92:11 I have seen the defeat of my enemies and heard the cries of the wicked. |
92:12 The righteous will flourish like palm trees; they will grow like the cedars of Lebanon. |
92:13 They are like trees planted in the house of the LORD, that flourish in the Temple of our God, |
92:14 that still bear fruit in old age and are always green and strong. |
92:15 This shows that the LORD is just, that there is no wrong in my protector. |
