Psalm 92 | Dan Sundersingh | It is Good to Give Thanks!

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.

¹It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High;

²to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness by night,

³to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre.

⁴For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work; at the works of your hands I sing for joy.

⁵How great are your works, O Lord! Your thoughts are very deep!

⁶The stupid man cannot know; the fool cannot understand this:

⁷that though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they are doomed to destruction forever;

⁸but you, O Lord, are on high forever.

⁹For behold, your enemies, O Lord, for behold, your enemies shall perish; all evildoers shall be scattered.

¹⁰But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox; you have poured over me fresh oil.

¹¹My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.

¹²The righteous flourish like the palm tree and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

¹³They are planted in the house of the Lord; they flourish in the courts of our God.

¹⁴They still bear fruit in old age; they are ever full of sap and green,

¹⁵to declare that the Lord is upright; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
