< Psalmorum 75 >
1 in finem ne corrumpas psalmus Asaph cantici confitebimur tibi Deus confitebimur et invocabimus nomen tuum narrabimus mirabilia tua
To the Chief Musician. "Do not Destroy." A Melody of Asaph, a Song. We have given thanks unto thee, O God, we have given thanks, And, in calling upon thy Name, men have recounted thy wonders.
2 cum accepero tempus ego iustitias iudicabo
Surely I will take a set time, —I, with equity, will judge:
3 liquefacta est terra et omnes qui habitant in ea ego confirmavi columnas eius diapsalma
Earth was melting away with all its inhabitants, I, have fixed the pillars thereof. (Selah)
4 dixi iniquis nolite inique facere et delinquentibus nolite exaltare cornu
I have said to the boasters, Do not boast, And to the lawless, Do not lift up a horn;
5 nolite extollere in altum cornu vestrum nolite loqui adversus Deum iniquitatem
Do not lift up on high your horn, Nor speak of the Rock, with arrogance;
6 quia neque ab oriente neque ab occidente neque a desertis montibus
For neither from east nor west, Nor from the wilderness of the mountains [cometh exaltation];
7 quoniam Deus iudex est hunc humiliat et hunc exaltat
For, God himself, is about to judge, One, he will cast down, Another, he will lift up;
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
For, a cup, is in the hand of Yahweh, Whose wine is foaming, It is full of spiced wine, Which he hath caused to flow from one to another, —Surely, the dregs thereof, they shall drain out—they shall drink, Even all the lawless ones of the earth.
9 ego autem adnuntiabo in saeculum cantabo Deo Iacob
But, I, will exult unto times age-abiding, I will sing praises unto the God of Jacob;
10 et omnia cornua peccatorum confringam et exaltabuntur cornua iusti
But, all the horns of the lawless, will I hew off, —Exalted shall be the horns of the Righteous One.
