Psalm 92

A song to praise God

1It is good to thank the Lord !

We sing to praise your name, Most High God.

2We sing in the morning

to thank you for your great love.

We sing at night

to say that you are always faithful .

3We make beautiful music

with lutes , harps and lyres .

4The things that you do, Lord ,

make me very happy.

I sing with joy

because of everything that your hands have made!

5Yes, Lord , you have done great things!

Your thoughts are more than we can understand!

6This is something that stupid people do not know.

Fools do not understand it.

7Wicked people may continue to grow,

like green grass.

Evil people may grow like weeds.

But in the end you will destroy them

and they will never grow again.

8You, Lord , will rule as King for ever!

9Yes, Lord , look at your enemies!

Your enemies will all die!

Those people who do evil things will all disappear !

10You have made me as strong as a wild bull .

You have poured pure olive oil on me.

11With my own eyes,

I have seen my enemies fall.

With my own ears,

I have heard them cry out in pain.

12Righteous people will do well,

like a palm tree that makes new leaves.

They will become strong,

like a tall cedar tree in Lebanon.

13They are like trees that someone has planted in the Lord 's house.

They grow well in the yard of our God's temple .

14When they are old,

they will still give fruit!

They will always be strong,

with fresh, green leaves.

15Righteous people will tell everyone,

‘The Lord always does what is right.

He is my strong, safe rock.

There is nothing bad in him.’
