PSALMS
93.1
- 10There shall no evil befall thee,
- Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent.
- 11For He will give His angels charge over thee,
- To keep thee in all thy ways.
- 12They shall bear thee upon their hands,
- Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
- 13Thou shalt tread upon the lion and asp;
- The young lion and the serpent shalt thou trample under feet.
- 14'Because he hath set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him;
- I will set him on high, because he hath known My name.
- 15He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble;
- I will rescue him, and bring him to honour.
- 16With long life will I satisfy him,
- And make Him to behold My salvation.'
92 A Psalm, a Song. For the sabbath day.
- 2It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord,
- And to sing praises unto Thy name, O Most High;
- 3To declare Thy lovingkindness in the morning,
- And Thy faithfulness in the night seasons,
- 4With an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery;
- With a solemn sound upon the harp.
- 5For Thou, Lord, hast made me glad through Thy work;
- I will exult in the works of Thy hands.
- 6How great are Thy works, O Lord!
- Thy thoughts are very deep.
- 7A brutish man knoweth not,
- Neither doth a fool understand this.
- 8When the wicked spring up as the grass,
- And when all the workers of iniquity do flourish;
- It is that they may be destroyed for ever.
- 9But Thou, O Lord, art on high for evermore.
- 10For, lo, Thine enemies, O Lord,
- For, lo, Thine enemies shall perish:
- All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
- 11But my horn hast Thou exalted like the horn of the wild-ox;
- I am anointed with rich oil.
- 12Mine eye also hath gazed on them that lie in wait for me,
- Mine ears have heard my desire of the evil-doers that rise up against me.
- 13The righteous shall flourish like the palm-tree;
- He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
- 14Planted in the house of the Lord,
- They shall flourish in the courts of our God.
- 15They shall still bring forth fruit in old age;
- They shall be full of sap and richness;
- 16To declare that the Lord is upright,
- My Rock, in whom there is no unrighteousness.
- 93The Lord reigneth; He is clothed in majesty;
- The Lord is clothed, He hath girded Himself with strength;
