< Psalmorum 75 >
1 Psalmus Cantici Asaph, in finem, ne corrumpas. Confitebimur tibi Deus: confitebimur, et invocabimus nomen tuum. Narrabimus mirabilia tua:
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 cum accepero tempus, ego iustitias iudicabo.
When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
3 Liquefacta est terra, et omnes qui habitant in ea: ego confirmavi columnas eius.
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 unto 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 cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
7 quoniam Deus iudex est. Hunc humiliat, et hunc exaltat:
But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
8 quia calix in manu Domini vini meri plenus misto. Et inclinavit ex hoc in hoc: verumtamen faex eius non est exinanita: bibent omnes peccatores terrae.
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 Ego autem annunciabo in saeculum: cantabo Deo Iacob.
But 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 exalted.
