1
We give thanks to you, God;
we give thanks to you, for your name is near.
People tell about your wondrous works.
2
“When I choose a time,
I will judge fairly.
3
When the earth and all its inhabitants shake,
I am the one who steadies its pillars.Selah
4
I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’
and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn.
5
Do not lift up your horn against heaven
or speak arrogantly.’”
6
Exaltation does not come
from the east, the west, or the desert,
7
for God is the Judge:
He brings down one and exalts another.
8
For there is a cup in the Lord’s hand,
full of wine blended with spices, and he pours from it.
All the wicked of the earth will drink,
draining it to the dregs.
9
As for me, I will tell about him forever;
I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.
10
“I will cut off all the horns of the wicked,
but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”
