Psalm 92 | New International Version

A psalm. A song. For the Sabbath day.

1 It is good to praise the Lord and make music to your name, O Most High,

2 proclaiming your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night,

3 to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp.

4 For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord; I sing for joy at what your hands have done.

5 How great are your works, Lord, how profound your thoughts!

6 Senseless people do not know, fools do not understand,

7 that though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed for ever.

8 But you, Lord, are for ever exalted.

9 For surely your enemies, Lord, surely your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10 You have exalted my horn* like that of a wild ox; fine oils have been poured on me.

11 My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries; my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.

12 The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;

13 planted in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

14 They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,

15 proclaiming, ‘The Lord is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.’

La Bible du Semeur

Il est bon de louer l’Eternel

1 Psaume à chanter le jour du sabbat.

2 Il est bon de louer l’Eternel, de te célébrer ╵par des chants, ╵ô Très-Haut!

3 Et de proclamer, ╵dès le point du jour, ╵ton amour, tout au long des nuits, ╵ta fidélité,

4 sur la cithare à dix cordes*, sur le luth et sur la lyre*.

5 Ce que tu fais, Eternel, ╵me remplit de joie et j’acclamerai les ouvrages de tes mains.

6 Que tes œuvres sont grandioses, ╵Eternel! Que tes pensées sont profondes!

7 L’insensé n’y connaît rien, le sot ne peut les comprendre.

8 Si les malfaisants ╵croissent comme l’herbe, si tous les méchants ╵sont si florissants, c’est pour périr à jamais.

9 Mais toi, tu es tout là-haut, Eternel, ╵pour toujours.

10 Car voici tes ennemis, ╵Eternel, car voici tes ennemis périssent, et tous ceux qui font le mal ╵seront dispersés!

11 Mais tu me remplis de force, ╵je suis comme un buffle, je me suis enduit ╵d’huile fraîche.

12 Je regarde tous mes détracteurs, j’entends tous mes adversaires ╵qui s’emploient au mal.

13 Car les justes poussent ╵comme le palmier, ils grandissent ╵comme un cèdre du Liban*.

14 Bien plantés ╵dans la demeure de l’Eternel, ils fleurissent ╵sur les parvis du temple, ╵de notre Dieu.

15 Ils seront féconds ╵jusqu’en leur vieillesse et ils resteront ╵pleins de sève et de vigueur,

16 ils proclameront ╵combien l’Eternel est droit: il est mon rocher, ╵on ne trouve en lui ╵aucune injustice.
