[For the end, Destroy not, a Psalm of a Song for Asaph.][1]We will give thanks to thee, O God, we will give thanks, and call upon thy name: I will declare all thy wonderful works.[2]When I shall take a set time, I will judge righteously.[3]The earth is dissolved, and all that dwell in it: I have strengthened its pillars. Pause.[4]I said unto the transgressors, Do not transgress; and to the sinners, Lift not up the horn.[5]Lift not up your horn on high; speak not unrighteousness against God.[6]For good comes neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert mountains.[7]For God is the judge; he puts down one, and raises up another.[8]For there is a cup in the hand of the Lord, full of unmingled wine; and he has turned it from side to side, but its dregs have not been wholly poured out; all the sinners of the earth shall drink them.[9]But I will exult for ever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.[10]And I will break all the horns of sinners; but the horns of the righteous one shall be exalted.
