Psalmorum 75

1 in finem ne corrumpas psalmus Asaph cantici confitebimur tibi Deus confitebimur et invocabimus nomen tuum narrabimus mirabilia tua

For the leader; al tashheth. A psalm of Asaph, a song. We praise you, God, we praise you: we would call on your name and declare your wonders.

2 cum accepero tempus ego iustitias iudicabo

‘At the time I choose, I will judge fairly.

3 liquefacta est terra et omnes qui habitant in ea ego confirmavi columnas eius diapsalma

Though earth melt and all her inhabitants, it is I who keep steady her pillars.’ (Selah)

4 dixi iniquis nolite inique facere et delinquentibus nolite exaltare cornu

I say to the boasters, ‘Boast not’; to the wicked, ‘Lift not up your horn:

5 nolite extollere in altum cornu vestrum nolite loqui adversus Deum iniquitatem

lift not your horn on high, speak not boldly against the Rock.’

6 quia neque ab oriente neque ab occidente neque a desertis montibus

For not from east nor west, not from desert nor mountains;

7 quoniam Deus iudex est hunc humiliat et hunc exaltat

but God himself is the judge, humbling one and exalting another.

8 quia calix in manu Domini vini meri plenus mixto et inclinavit ex hoc in hoc verum fex eius non est exinanita bibent omnes peccatores terrae

In the hand of the Lord is a cup foaming wine, richly spiced. Out of this he pours a draught, and all the wicked of earth must drain it down to the dregs.

9 ego autem adnuntiabo in saeculum cantabo Deo Iacob

But I will rejoice forever, singing praise to the God of Jacob.

10 et omnia cornua peccatorum confringam et exaltabuntur cornua iusti

I will hew all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the just shall be lifted.
