Psalms 92

mizmor shir leyom hashabbat

A psalm. A song; for the sabbath day.

tov lehodot la-Adonai ulezammer leshimkha elyon

It is good to praise GOD, to sing hymns to Your name, O Most High,

lehaggid babboqer khasdekha ve'emunatekha ballelot

To proclaim Your steadfast love at daybreak, Your faithfulness each night

ale-asor va'ale-navel ale higgayon bekhinnor

With a ten-stringed harp, with voice and lyre together.

ki simmakhtani Adonai befo'olekha bema'ase yadekha arannen

You have gladdened me by Your deeds, O ETERNAL One; I shout for joy at Your handiwork.

mah-ggodlu ma'asekha Adonai me'od amequ makhshevotekha

How great are Your works, O ETERNAL One, how very subtle Your designs!

ish-ba'ar lo yeda ukhesil lo-yavin et-zot

A brute cannot know, a fool cannot understand this:

bifroakh resha'im kemo-esev vayyatsitsu kol-po'ale aven lehishamedam ade-ad

though the wicked sprout like grass, though all evildoers blossom, it is only that they may be destroyed forever.

ve'attah marom le'olam Adonai

But You are exalted, O ETERNAL One, for all time.

ki hinneh oyevekha Adonai ki-hinneh oyevekha yovedu yitparedu kol-po'ale aven

Surely, Your enemies, O ETERNAL One, surely, Your enemies perish; all evildoers are scattered.

vattarem kirem qarni balloti beshemen ra'anan

You raise my horn high like that of a wild ox; I am soaked in freshening oil.

vattabbet eni beshuray baqqamim alay mere'im tishmanah oznay

I shall see the defeat of my watchful foes, hear of the downfall of the wicked who beset me.

tsaddiq kattamar yifrakh ke'erez ballevanon yisgeh

The righteous bloom like a date-palm; they thrive like a cedar in Lebanon;

shetulim bevet Adonai bekhatsrot elohenu yafrikhu

planted in the house of GOD, they flourish in the courts of our God.

od yenuvun besevah deshenim vera'anannim yihyu

In old age they still produce fruit; they are full of sap and freshness—

lehaggid ki-yashar Adonai tsuri velo-[avlatah] (lth) bo

attesting that GOD is upright, my rock, in whom there is no wrong.
