Psalm

How Great Are Your Works
92 A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.

    It 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₍₁₎ 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.
