Contextual Overview

⁷ Though the wicked sprout like weeds and evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever. ⁸ But you, O Lord , will be exalted forever. ⁹ Your enemies, Lord , will surely perish; all evildoers will be scattered. ¹⁰ But you have made me as strong as a wild ox. You have anointed me with the finest oil. ¹¹ My eyes have seen the downfall of my enemies; my ears have heard the defeat of my wicked opponents. ¹² But the godly will flourish like palm trees and grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon. ¹³ For they are transplanted to the Lord 's own house.

There is no evil in him!"

Gill's Notes on the Bible

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.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

But thou, Lord, art most high for evermore - In the treatment of the righteous and the wicked, thou wilt maintain thine own exalted place as a sovereign. Whatever may occur to people, God will maintain this exalted position as supreme over all.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 92:8. High for evermore. — They are brought down and destroyed; but the Lord is exalted eternally, both for his judgments and his mercies.
