Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.
This psalm teaches us to praise God because His justice and faithfulness never fail. He protects His people, destroys the wicked, and by setting aside the Sabbath for this exercise, He wisely secures us from fainting under affliction and turns us from iniquity by showing that sinners, however they prosper briefly, will swiftly perish.

Commenting on Psalm 92:1-15
Upon an instrument of ten strings; with the fullest range of music, uttering before God with the full compass of melody the richest emotions of his soul. And upon the psaltery; thus giving variety to praise: the Psalmist felt that every sweet-sounding instrument should be consecrated to God.
This psalm was appointed to be sung, at least it usually was sung, in the house of the sanctuary on the sabbath day, that day of rest, which was an instituted memorial of the work of creation, of God's rest from that work, and the continuance of it in his providence; for the Father worketh hitherto. Note, 1.
