< Psalmorum 75 >
1 In finem, ne corrumpas. Psalmus cantici Asaph. [Confitebimur tibi, Deus, confitebimur, et invocabimus nomen tuum; narrabimus mirabilia tua.
To you, O God, do we give thanks, to you do we give thanks: for that your name is near your wondrous works declare.
2 Cum accepero tempus, ego justitias judicabo.
When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
3 Liquefacta est terra et omnes qui habitant in ea: ego confirmavi columnas ejus.
The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. (Selah)
4 Dixi iniquis: Nolite inique agere: et delinquentibus: Nolite exaltare cornu:
I said to the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5 nolite extollere in altum cornu vestrum; nolite loqui adversus Deum iniquitatem.
Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
6 Quia neque ab oriente, neque ab occidente, neque a desertis montibus:
For promotion comes neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
7 quoniam Deus judex est. Hunc humiliat, et hunc exaltat:
But God is the judge: he puts down one, and sets up another.
8 quia calix in manu Domini vini meri, plenus misto. Et inclinavit ex hoc in hoc; verumtamen fæx ejus non est exinanita: bibent omnes peccatores terræ.
For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he pours out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
9 Ego autem annuntiabo in sæculum; cantabo Deo Jacob:
But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 et omnia cornua peccatorum confringam, et exaltabuntur cornua justi.]
All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
