The Book of Psalms, Chapter 75
|
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.
