PSALM 92
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm or Song for the sabbath day.
1To render thanks unto the Lord
it is a comely thing,
And to thy name, O thou most High,
due praise aloud to sing.
2Thy loving-kindness to shew forth
when shines the morning light;
And to declare thy faithfulness
with pleasure ev'ry night.
3On a ten-stringed instrument,
upon the psaltery,
And on the harp with solemn sound,
and grave sweet melody.
4For thou, Lord, by thy mighty works
hast made my heart right glad;
And I will triumph in the works
which by thine hands were made.
5How great, Lord, are thy works! each thought
of thine a deep it is:
6A brutish man it knoweth not;
fools understand not this.
7When those that lewd and wicked are
spring quickly up like grass,
And workers of iniquity
do flourish all apace;
It is that they for ever may
destroyed be and slain;
8But thou, O Lord, art the most High,
for ever to remain.
9For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord,
thine en'mies perish shall;
The workers of iniquity
shall be dispersed all.
10But thou shalt, like unto the horn
of th' unicorn, exalt
My horn on high: thou with fresh oil
anoint me also shalt.
11Mine eyes shall also my desire
see on mine enemies;
Mine ears shall of the wicked hear
that do against me rise.
12But like the palm-tree flourishing
shall be the righteous one;
He shall like to the cedar grow
that is in Lebanon.
13Those that within the house of God
are planted by his grace,
They shall grow up, and flourish all
in our God's holy place.
14And in old age, when others fade,
they fruit still forth shall bring;
They shall be fat, and full of sap,
and aye be flourishing;
15To shew that upright is the Lord:
he is a rock to me;
And he from all unrighteousness
is altogether free.

Psalms 92
92
1A Psalme or song for the Sabbath day. It is a good thing to praise the Lord, and to sing vnto thy Name, O most High, 2To declare thy louing kindenesse in the morning, and thy trueth in the night, 3Vpon an instrument of tenne strings, and vpon the viole with the song vpon the harpe. 4For thou, Lord, hast made mee glad by thy workes, and I wil reioyce in the workes of thine handes. 5O Lord, how glorious are thy workes! and thy thoughtes are very deepe. 6An vnwise man knoweth it not, and a foole doeth not vnderstand this, 7(When the wicked growe as the grasse, and all the workers of wickednesse doe flourish) that they shall be destroyed for euer. 8But thou, O Lord, art most High for euermore. 9For loe, thine enemies, O Lord: for loe, thine enemies shall perish: all the workers of iniquitie shall be destroyed. 10But thou shalt exalt mine horne, like the vnicornes, and I shalbe anoynted with fresh oyle. 11Mine eye also shall see my desire against mine enemies: and mine eares shall heare my wish against the wicked, that rise vp against me. 12The righteous shall flourish like a palme tree, and shall grow like a Cedar in Lebanon. 13Such as bee planted in the house of the Lord, shall flourish in the courtes of our God. 14They shall still bring foorth fruite in their age: they shall be fat and flourishing, 15To declare that the Lord my rocke is righteous, and that none iniquitie is in him.
