1 | 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 | When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly. |
3 | The earth and all the
inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah. |
4 | I said unto the fools, Deal not
foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn: |
5 | Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a
stiff neck. |
6 | For
promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the
south. |
7 | But God is the
judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another. |
8 | 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 | But I will
declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. |
10 | All the horns of the wicked also will
I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted. |
