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. | |
