Psalm 92 - Evangelical Heritage Version - 2021（EHV）

It Is Good to Praise the Lord

A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath.A Call to Praise

1It is good to give thanks to the Lord,

to make music to your name, O Most High,

2to proclaim your mercy in the morning

and your faithfulness every night,

3with a ten-stringed instrument and with a harp,

with a melody on a lyre.

The Blessings of Praise

4Yes, you make me glad by your work, O Lord.

I sing loudly at the works of your hands.

5How great are your works, O Lord.

Your thoughts are very deep!

The Folly and Fall of the Wicked

6The senseless man does not know,

and the fool does not understand this—

7when the wicked spring up like weeds,

and all evildoers bloom like flowers,

they will be destroyed forever.

Central Affirmation

8But you are exalted forever, O Lord.

The Fall of the Wicked

9Without a doubt your enemies, O Lord,

without a doubt your enemies will perish.

All evildoers will be scattered.

The Blessing of the Righteous

10But you have raised my horn like that of a wild ox.

I am drenched with fresh oil.

11My eyes have looked in triumph over my adversaries.

When evildoers rise against me, my ears hear their defeat.

12The righteous will shoot up like a palm tree.

They will grow tall like a cedar in Lebanon.

13Planted in the house of the Lord,

they will shoot up in the courtyards of our God.

14They will still produce fruit in old age.

They will stay fresh and green.

Closing Praise

15Yes, they can proclaim, “The Lord is upright.

He is my Rock, and he does no wrong.”
