Psalms
92-94
Psa
92:1 It is a good thing to give thanks to Yahweh, to sing praises to
your name, Most High;
Psa
92:2 to proclaim your loving kindness in the morning, and your
faithfulness every night,
Psa
92:3 with the ten-stringed lute, with the harp, and with the melody
of the lyre.
Psa
92:4 For you, Yahweh, have made me glad through your work. I will
triumph in the works of your hands.
Psa
92:5 How great are your works, Yahweh! Your thoughts are very deep.
Psa
92:6 A senseless man doesn't know, neither does a fool understand
this:
Psa
92:7 though the wicked spring up as the grass, and all the evildoers
flourish, they will be destroyed forever.
Psa
92:8 But you, Yahweh, are on high forevermore.
Psa
92:9 For, behold, your enemies, Yahweh, for, behold, your enemies
shall perish. All the evildoers will be scattered.
Psa
92:10 But you have exalted my horn like that of the wild ox. I am
anointed with fresh oil.
Psa
92:11 My eye has also seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the
wicked enemies who rise up against me.
Psa
92:12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree. He will grow
like a cedar in Lebanon.
Psa
92:13 They are planted in Yahweh's house. They will flourish in our
God's courts.
Psa
92:14 They will still bring forth fruit in old age. They will be
full of sap and green,
Psa
92:15 to show that Yahweh is upright. He is my rock, and there is no
unrighteousness in him.
Psa
93:1 Yahweh reigns! He is clothed with majesty! Yahweh is armed with
strength. The world also is established. It can't be moved.
Psa
93:2 Your throne is established from long ago. You are from
everlasting.
Psa
93:3 The floods have lifted up, Yahweh, the floods have lifted up
their voice. The floods lift up their waves.
Psa
93:4 Above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the
sea, Yahweh on high is mighty.
Psa
93:5 Your statutes stand firm. Holiness adorns your house, Yahweh,
forevermore.
Psa
94:1 Yahweh, you God to whom vengeance belongs, you God to whom
vengeance belongs, shine forth.
Psa
94:2 Rise up, you judge of the earth. Pay back the proud what they
deserve.
Psa
94:3 Yahweh, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked
triumph?
Psa
94:4 They pour out arrogant words. All the evildoers boast.
Psa
94:5 They break your people in pieces, Yahweh, and afflict your
heritage.
Psa
94:6 They kill the widow and the alien, and murder the fatherless.
Psa
94:7 They say, "Yah will not see, neither will Jacob's God
consider."
Psa
94:8 Consider, you senseless among the people; you fools, when will
you be wise?
Psa
94:9 He who implanted the ear, won't he hear? He who formed the eye,
won't he see?
Psa
94:10 He who disciplines the nations, won't he punish? He who
teaches man knows.
Psa
94:11 Yahweh knows the thoughts of man, that they are futile.
Psa
94:12 Blessed is the man whom you discipline, Yah, and teach out of
your law;
Psa
94:13 that you may give him rest from the days of adversity, until
the pit is dug for the wicked.
Psa
94:14 For Yahweh won't reject his people, neither will he forsake
his inheritance.
Psa
94:15 For judgment will return to righteousness. All the upright in
heart shall follow it.
Psa
94:16 Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will stand up
for me against the evildoers?
Psa
94:17 Unless Yahweh had been my help, my soul would have soon lived
in silence.
Psa
94:18 When I said, "My foot is slipping!" Your loving
kindness, Yahweh, held me up.
Psa
94:19 In the multitude of my thoughts within me, your comforts
delight my soul.
Psa
94:20 Shall the throne of wickedness have fellowship with you, which
brings about mischief by statute?
Psa
94:21 They gather themselves together against the soul of the
righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
Psa
94:22 But Yahweh has been my high tower, my God, the rock of my
refuge.
Psa
94:23 He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them
off in their own wickedness. Yahweh, our God, will cut them off.
