Psalms 92 — Context

O Lord, how great are your works! and your thoughts are very deep.

A man without sense has no knowledge of this; and a foolish man may not take it in.

When the sinners come up like the grass, and all the workers of evil do well for themselves, it is so that their end may be eternal destruction.

But you, O Lord, are on high for ever.

For see! your haters, O Lord, will be put to death; all the workers of evil will be put to flight;

But my horn is lifted up like the horn of the ox: the best oil is flowing on my head.

My eyes have seen trouble come on my haters; my ears have news of the fate of the evil-doers who have come up against me.
