Context of Psalms 92:5

3Upon an instrument of ten strings and upon the lute; upon the Higgaion with the harp. 4For thou, Jehovah, hast made me glad through thy work; I will triumph in the works of thy hands. Jehovah, how great are thy works! Thy thoughts are very deep: 6A brutish man knoweth not, neither doth a fool understand it. 7When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they may be destroyed for ever.
