Psalm 92

A Psalm. A Song for Shabbat.

¹ It is good to praise the LORD
       and make music to your name, O Most High,
² to proclaim your love in the morning
       and your faithfulness at night,
 ³ to the music of the ten-stringed lyre
       and the melody of the harp.
 ⁴ For you make me glad by your deeds, O LORD;
       I sing for joy at the works of your hands.
 ⁵ How great are your works, O LORD,
       how profound your thoughts!
 ⁶ The senseless man does not know,
       fools do not understand,
 ⁷ that though the wicked spring up like grass
       and all evildoers flourish,
       they will be forever destroyed.
 ⁸ But you, O LORD, are exalted forever.
 ⁹ For surely your enemies, O LORD,
       surely your enemies will perish;
       all evildoers will be scattered.
 ¹⁰ You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox;
       fine oils have been poured upon me.
 ¹¹ My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries;
       my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.
 ¹² The righteous will flourish like a palm tree,
       they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;
 ¹³ planted in the house of the LORD,
       they will flourish in the courts of our God.
 ¹⁴ They will still bear fruit 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."

Proverbs 10

 ²⁴ What the wicked dreads will overtake him;
       what the righteous desire will be granted.
 ²⁵ When the storm has swept by, the wicked are gone,
       but the righteous stand firm forever.
 ³⁰ The righteous will never be uprooted,
       but the wicked will not remain in the land.
