TO THE OVERSEER. “DO NOT DESTROY.” A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG. We have given thanks to You, O God, We have given thanks, and Your Name [is] near, They have recounted Your wonders.

The earth and all its inhabitants are melted, I have pondered its pillars. (Selah)

4 Aka yan rhoek khaw yan uh boeh, halang rhoek te na ki pomsang boeh.

I have said to the boastful, “Do not be boastful,” And to the wicked, “Do not raise up a horn.”

Do not raise up your horn on high (You speak with a stiff neck).

For a cup [is] in the hand of YHWH, And the wine has foamed, It is full of mixture, and He pours out of it, Surely wring out its dregs, And all the wicked of the earth drink,

And I cut off all horns of the wicked, The horns of the righteous are exalted!
