PSALMS 诗篇092

PSALM¹ 92
1It is good to praise the Lord and make music to your name, O Most High,
2to proclaim your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,
3to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp².
4For you make me glad by your deeds, O Lord ; I sing for joy at the works of your hands.
5How great are your works, O Lord , how profound your thoughts!
6The senseless man does not know, fools do not understand,
7that though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.
8But you, O Lord , are exalted³ forever.
9For surely your enemies, O Lord , surely your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered⁴.
10You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; fine oils have been poured upon me.
11My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries⁵; my ears have heard the rout⁶ of my wicked foes⁷.
12The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar⁸ of Lebanon;
13planted in the house of the Lord , they will flourish in the courts of our God.
14They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,
15proclaiming, "The Lord is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him."
