Psalm 92
King James Version
92 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High:
2 To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.
4 For thou, Lord, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
5 O Lord, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.
6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
8 But thou, Lord, art most high for evermore.
9 For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
15 To shew that the Lord is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
Masalimo 92
Mawu a Mulungu mu Chichewa Chalero
Salimo. Nyimbo ya pa tsiku la Sabata.
92 Nʼkwabwino kutamanda Yehova

2 Kulengeza chikondi chanu mmawa,
ndi kukhulupirika kwanu nthawi ya usiku,
3 kuyimbira nyimbo choyimbira cha zingwe khumi
ndi mayimbidwe abwino a zeze.
4 Pakuti Inu mumandisangalatsa ndi ntchito zanu, Inu Yehova;
Ine ndikuyimba mwachimwemwe pa ntchito ya manja anu.
5 Ndi yayikuludi ntchito yanu Yehova,
maganizo anu ndi ozamadi!
6 Munthu wopanda nzeru sadziwa,
zitsiru sizizindikira,
7 kuti ngakhale anthu oyipa aphuka ngati udzu
ndipo anthu onse ochita zoyipa apindula,
adzawonongedwa kwamuyaya.
8 Koma Inu Yehova, ndinu wokwezedwa kwamuyaya.
9 Zoonadi adani anu Yehova,
zoonadi adani anu adzawonongeka;
onse ochita zoyipa adzabalalitsidwa.
10 Inu mwakweza nyanga yanga ngati nyanga ya njati;
mafuta abwino akhuthulidwa pamutu wanga.
11 Maso anga aona kugonjetsedwa kwa olimbana nane,
makutu anga amva za kugwa kwa amaliwongo anga oyipa.
12 Anthu olungama adzaphuka ngati mtengo wa mgwalangwa,
adzakula ngati mkungudza wa ku Lebanoni;
13 odzalidwa mʼnyumba ya Yehova,
adzakula bwino mʼmabwalo a Mulungu wathu.
14 Iwo adzaberekabe zipatso mu ukalamba wawo,
adzakhala anthete ndi obiriwira,
15 kulengeza kuti, “Yehova ndi wolungama;
Iye ndiye Thanthwe langa, ndipo mwa Iye mulibe choyipa.”
Psalm 92
New King James Version
Praise to the Lord for His Love and Faithfulness
A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath day.
92 It is (A)good to give thanks to the Lord,
And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
2 To (B)declare Your lovingkindness in the morning,
And Your faithfulness every night,
3 (C)On an instrument of ten strings,
On the lute,
And on the harp,
With harmonious sound.
4 For You, Lord, have made me glad through Your work;
I will triumph in the works of Your hands.
5 (D)O Lord, how great are Your works!
(E)Your thoughts are very deep.
6 (F)A senseless man does not know,
Nor does a fool understand this.
7 When (G)the wicked [a]spring up like grass,
And when all the workers of iniquity flourish,
It is that they may be destroyed forever.
8 (H)But You, Lord, are on high forevermore.
9 For behold, Your enemies, O Lord,
For behold, Your enemies shall perish;
All the workers of iniquity shall (I)be scattered.
10 But (J)my [b]horn You have exalted like a wild ox;
I have been (K)anointed with fresh oil.
11 (L)My eye also has seen my desire on my enemies;
My ears hear my desire on the wicked
Who rise up against me.
12 (M)The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree,
He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord
Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bear fruit in old age;
They shall be [c]fresh and [d]flourishing,
15 To declare that the Lord is upright;
(N)He is my rock, and (O)there is no unrighteousness in Him.

English Standard Version
How Great Are Your Works
A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath.
92 (A)It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to your name, (B)O Most High;
2 to declare your (C)steadfast love in (D)the morning,
and your (E)faithfulness by (F)night,
3 to the music of (G)the lute and (H)the harp,
to the melody of (I)the lyre.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your (J)work;
at (K)the works of your hands I sing for joy.
5 How (L)great are your works, O Lord!
Your (M)thoughts are very (N)deep!
6 The stupid man cannot know;
the fool cannot understand this:
7 that though (O)the wicked sprout like grass
and all (P)evildoers flourish,
they are doomed to destruction forever;
8 but you, O Lord, are (Q)on high forever.
9 For behold, your enemies, O Lord,
for behold, your enemies shall perish;
all evildoers shall be (R)scattered.
10 But you have exalted my (S)horn like that of (T)the wild ox;
you have (U)poured over me[a] fresh oil.
11 My (V)eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies;
my ears have heard the doom of my evil assailants.
12 (W)The righteous flourish like the palm tree
and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 They are planted in the house of the Lord;
they flourish in (X)the courts of our God.
14 They still bear fruit in old age;
they are ever full of sap and green,
15 (Y)to declare that the Lord is upright;
he is my (Z)rock, and there is (AA)no unrighteousness in him.
