Psalms 92:9

7 that though the wicked sprout like grass, and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.

8 But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!

For surely Your enemies, O LORD, surely Your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.

10 But You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; with fine oil I have been anointed.

11 My eyes see the downfall of my enemies; my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
