[1] A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath. [2] \92:1\It is a good thing to give
praise to the Lord, and to make melody to your name, O Most High; [3]
\92:2\To make clear your mercy in the morning, and your unchanging faith
every night; [4] \92:3\On a ten-corded instrument, and on an instrument of
music with a quiet sound. [5] \92:4\For you, O Lord, have made me glad
through your work; I will have joy in the works of your hands. [6] \92:5\O
Lord, how great are your works! and your thoughts are very deep. [7]
\92:6\A man without sense has no knowledge of this; and a foolish man may
not take it in. [8] \92:7\When the sinners come up like the grass, and all
the workers of evil do well for themselves, it is so that their end may be
eternal destruction. [9] \92:8\But you, O Lord, are on high for ever. [10]
\92:9\For see! your haters, O Lord, will be put to death; all the workers
of evil will be put to flight; [11] \92:10\But my horn is lifted up like
the horn of the ox: the best oil is flowing on my head. [12] \92:11\My eyes
have seen trouble come on my haters; my ears have news of the fate of the
evil-doers who have come up against me. [13] \92:12\The good man will be
like a tall tree in his strength; his growth will be as the wide-stretching
trees of Lebanon. [14] \92:13\Those who are planted in the house of the
Lord will come up tall and strong in his gardens. [15] \92:14\They will
give fruit even when they are old; they will be fertile and full of growth;
[16] \92:15\For a sign that the Lord is upright; he is my Rock, there is no
deceit in him.
