Psalms

We Praise Thee O God!.  Psalm 92(v91)

A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.

1It is good to give thanks to Yahweh,
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 have made me glad by your work, O Yahweh;
at the works of your hands I sing for joy.

5How great are your works, O Yahweh!
Your thoughts are very deep!
6The dull man cannot know,
the stupid cannot understand this:
7that, though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish,
they are doomed to destruction for ever,
8but you, O Yahweh, are on high for ever. 9For, lo, your enemies, O Yahweh,
for, lo, 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 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 Yahweh,
they flourish in the courts of our God.
14They still bring forth fruit in old age,
they are ever full of sap and green,
15to show that Yahweh is upright;
he is my rock, there is no unrighteousness in him.

Notes: This webpage enables you to select-a-version from the Bible versions held on the katapi bible database.
This page displays the katapi New Standard Bible as flowing text.
The katapi New Standard Bible is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.
