Psalms 92:8

8 But you, LORD, are exalted forever!

Psalms 92:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 92:8

But thou, Lord, art most high for evermore
God is "the most High"; that is one of his names; he is above all, is higher than the highest; and he dwells on high, and looks down upon the inhabitants of the earth, and sees what is doing among them; and to him they will be accountable another day for what they do; and when wicked, men perish, being destroyed, he will continue for ever in all his greatness, glory, and majesty; for there seems to be an antithesis in this verse to the former, or between wicked men and the Lord; and besides he endures for ever to inflict punishment upon them; and therefore it is that they shall be destroyed for ever.

Psalms 92:8 In-Context

6 Ignorant people don't know— fools don't understand this:

7 though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers seem to blossom, they do so only to be destroyed forever.

8 But you, LORD, are exalted forever!

9 Look at your enemies, LORD! Look at how your enemies die, how all evildoers are scattered abroad!

10 But you've made me as strong as a wild ox. I'm soaked in precious ointment.
