< Psalmorum 75 >
1 In finem, Ne corrumpas, Psalmus Cantici Asaph. Confitebimur tibi Deus: confitebimur, et invocabimus nomen tuum. Narrabimus mirabilia tua:
For the Leader; Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. We give thanks unto Thee, O God, we give thanks, and Thy name is near; men tell of Thy wondrous works.
2 cum accepero tempus, ego iustitias iudicabo.
'When I take the appointed time, I Myself will judge with equity.
3 Liquefacta est terra, et omnes qui habitant in ea: ego confirmavi columnas eius.
When the earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved, I Myself establish the pillars of it.' (Selah)
4 Dixi iniquis: Nolite inique agere: et delinquentibus: Nolite exaltare cornu:
I say unto the arrogant: 'Deal not arrogantly'; 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 insolence with a haughty neck.
6 Quia neque ab Oriente, neque ab Occidente, neque a desertis montibus:
For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the wilderness, cometh lifting up.
7 quoniam Deus iudex est. Hunc humiliat, et hunc exaltat:
For God is judge; He putteth down one, and lifteth up another.
8 quia calix in manu Domini vini meri plenus misto. Et inclinavit ex hoc in hoc: verumtamen fæx eius non est exinanita: bibent omnes peccatores terræ.
For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, with foaming wine, full of mixture, and He poureth out of the same; surely the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall drain them, and drink them.
9 Ego autem annunciabo in sæculum: cantabo Deo Iacob.
But as for me, I will declare for ever, I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 Et omnia cornua peccatorum confringam: et exaltabuntur cornua iusti.
All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
