Notes

Psalms 92:8–10

The glory of the Lord is the reason the poet receives new strength and honor. It is also the reason the enemy will soon be defeated.

Psalms 92:1–15

This psalm begins with thanksgiving and praise. The Lord, the Most High, is fair and just in judging the godly and the wicked. The godly will have a bright and strong future, while the wicked will die.

Wise people see and understand the Lord's actions, which show his justice (Psalm 92:6–7, 11, 15). The wicked, like grass, are quickly destroyed (Psalm 92:7–10).
