| Chapter 75 |
1 |
{To the chief Musician. `Destroy not.` A Psalm of Asaph: a Song.} Unto thee we give thanks, O God, we give thanks; and thy name is near: thy marvellous works declare it. |
2 |
When I shall receive the assembly, I will judge with equity. |
3 |
The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I have established its pillars. Selah. |
4 |
I said unto the boastful, Boast not; and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn: |
5 |
Lift not up your horn on high; speak not arrogantly with a stiff neck. |
6 |
For not from the east nor from the west, nor yet from the south doth exaltation come: |
7 |
For God is the judge; he putteth down one and exalteth another. |
8 |
For in the hand of Jehovah there is a cup, and it foameth with wine, it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same; yea, the dregs thereof shall all the wicked of the earth drain off, and drink. |
9 |
But as for me, I will declare for ever; I will sing psalms to the God of Jacob. |
10 |
And all the horns of the wicked will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted. |
