Psalmorum 75

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

To the Overseer. — 'Destroy not.' — A Psalm of Asaph. — A Song. We have given thanks to Thee, O God, We have given thanks, and near [is] Thy name, They have recounted Thy wonders.

2 cum accepero tempus ego iustitias iudicabo

When I receive an appointment, I — I do judge uprightly.

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

Melted is the earth and all its inhabitants, I — I have pondered its pillars. (Selah)

4 dixi iniquis nolite inique facere et delinquentibus nolite exaltare cornu

I have said to the boastful, 'Be not boastful,' And to the wicked, 'Raise not up a horn.'

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

Raise not up on high your horn, (Ye speak with a stiff neck.)

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

For not from the east, or from the west, Nor from the wilderness — [is] elevation.

7 quoniam Deus iudex est hunc humiliat et hunc exaltat

But God [is] judge, This He maketh low — and this He lifteth 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 Jehovah, And the wine hath foamed, It is full of mixture, and He poureth out of it, Only its dregs wring out, and drink, Do all the wicked of the earth,

9 ego autem adnuntiabo in saeculum cantabo Deo Iacob

And I — I declare [it] to the age, I sing praise to the God of Jacob.

10 et omnia cornua peccatorum confringam et exaltabuntur cornua iusti

And all horns of the wicked I cut off, Exalted are the horns of the righteous!
