1 T e damos gracias, oh Dios, te damos gracias, pues cercano está tu nombre; los hombres declaran tus maravillas.

We give thanks to You, O God. We give thanks that Your name is near. Men tell about the great things You have done.

2 C uando yo escoja el tiempo oportuno, seré yo quien juzgará con equidad.

You say, “When the right time has come, I will be right and fair in deciding who is guilty or not.

3 T iemblan la tierra y todos sus moradores, mas yo sostengo sus columnas. (Selah )

When the earth and all its people shake, it is I Who will hold it together.

4 D ije a los orgullosos: No os jactéis; y a los impíos: No alcéis la frente;

I said to the proud, ‘Do not speak with pride.’ And I said to the sinful, ‘Do not lift up the horn.

5 n o levantéis en alto vuestra frente; no habléis con orgullo insolente.

Do not lift your horn up high. Do not speak in your pride.’”

6 P orque ni del oriente ni del occidente, ni del desierto viene el enaltecimiento;

For honor does not come from the east or the west or from the desert.

7 s ino que Dios es el juez; a uno humilla y a otro ensalza.

But God is the One Who decides. He puts down one and brings respect to another.

8 P orque hay un cáliz en la mano del Señor, y el vino fermenta, lleno de mixtura, y de éste El sirve; ciertamente lo sorberán hasta las heces y lo beberán todos los impíos de la tierra.

For there is a cup in the Lord’s hand. It is full of strong wine that is well mixed. He pours out from it, and all the sinful people of the earth must drink all of it.

9 P ero yo lo anunciaré para siempre; cantaré alabanzas al Dios de Jacob.

But as for me, I will tell of it forever. I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 Q uebraré todo el poderío de los impíos, pero el poderío del justo será ensalzado.

He will cut off all the horns of the sinful. But the horns of those who are right with God will be lifted up.
