Psalms 92:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 92:6

4 For You, Lord, have made me glad through Your work;
I will triumph in the works of Your hands.

5 ^aO Lord, how great are Your works!
^bYour thoughts are very deep.

6 ^aA senseless man does not know,
Nor does a fool understand this.

7 When ^athe wicked spring up like grass,
And when all the workers of iniquity flourish,
It is that they may be destroyed forever.

8 ^aBut You, Lord, are on high forevermore.

9 For behold, Your enemies, O Lord,
For behold, Your enemies shall perish;
All the workers of iniquity shall ^abe scattered.

10 But ^amy horn You have exalted like a wild ox;
I have been ^banointed with fresh oil.

11 ^aMy eye also has seen my desire on my enemies;
My ears hear my desire on the wicked
Who rise up against me.
