picture

1 W e give praise and thanks to You, O God, we praise and give thanks; Your wondrous works declare that Your Name is near and they who invoke Your Name rehearse Your wonders.

Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.

2 W hen the proper time has come, I will judge uprightly.

When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.

3 W hen the earth totters, and all the inhabitants of it, it is I Who will poise and keep steady its pillars. Selah!

The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.

4 I said to the arrogant and boastful, Deal not arrogantly; and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn.

I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

5 L ift not up your horn on high, speak not with a stiff neck and insolent arrogance.

Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.

6 F or not from the east nor from the west nor from the south come promotion and lifting up.

For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.

7 B ut God is the Judge! He puts down one and lifts up another.

But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

8 F or in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine foams and is red, well mixed; and He pours out from it, and all the wicked of the earth must drain it and drink its dregs.

For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.

9 B ut I will declare and rejoice forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 A ll the horns of the ungodly also will I cut off, but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
