| Chapter 75 |
1 |
To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, A Psalm or Song of Asaph. To thee, O God, do we give thanks, to 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 its inhabitants are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
|
4 |
I said to 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 of it 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.
