Psalm 92a

A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day.

1 It is good to praise the Lord

and make musicq to your name,r O Most High,s

2 proclaiming your love in the morningt

and your faithfulness at night,

3 to the music of the ten-stringed lyreu

and the melody of the harp.v

4 For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord;

I sing for joyw at what your hands have done.x

5 How great are your works,y Lord,

how profound your thoughts!z

6 Senseless peoplea do not know,

fools do not understand,

7 that though the wicked spring up like grass

and all evildoers flourish,

they will be destroyed forever.b

8 But you, Lord, are forever exalted.

9 For surely your enemiesc, Lord,

surely your enemies will perish;

all evildoers will be scattered.d

10 You have exalted my hornb e like that of a wild ox;f

fine oilsg have been poured on me.

11 My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries;

my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.h

12 The righteous will flourishi like a palm tree,

they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;j

13 planted in the house of the Lord,

they will flourish in the courts of our God.k

14 They will still bear fruitl in old age,

they will stay fresh and green,

15 proclaiming, “The Lord is upright;

he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.m”

Psalm 93

1 The Lord reigns,n he is robed in majesty;o

the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength;p

indeed, the world is established,q firm and secure.r

2 Your throne was establisheds long ago;

you are from all eternity.t

3 The seasu have lifted up, Lord,

the seas have lifted up their voice;v

the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.w

4 Mightier than the thunderx of the great waters,

mightier than the breakersy of the sea—

the Lord on high is mighty.z

5 Your statutes, Lord, stand firm;

holinessa adorns your houseb

for endless days.
