1 We give thanks to you, God.
We give thanks, for your Name is near.
Men tell about your wondrous works.
2 When I choose the appointed time,
I will judge blamelessly.
3 The earth and all its inhabitants quake.
I firmly hold its pillars. Selah.
4 I said to the arrogant, "Don’t boast!"
I said to the wicked, "Don’t lift up the horn.
5 Don’t lift up your horn on high.
Don’t speak with a stiff neck."
6 For neither from the east, nor from the west,
nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.
7 But God is the judge.
He puts down one, and lifts up another.
8 For in Yahweh’s hand there is a cup,
full of foaming wine mixed with spices.
He pours it out.
Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs.
9 But I will declare this forever:
I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 I will cut off all the horns of the wicked,
but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ אַל־תַּשְׁחֵת מִזְמֹור לְאָסָף שִׁיר׃
2 הֹודִינוּ לְּךָ ׀ אֱלֹהִים הֹודִינוּ וְקָרֹוב שְׁמֶךָ סִפְּרוּ נִפְלְאֹותֶיךָ׃
3 כִּי אֶקַּח מֹועֵד אֲנִי מֵישָׁרִים אֶשְׁפֹּט׃
4 נְמֹגִים אֶרֶץ וְכָל־יֹשְׁבֶיהָ אָנֹכִי תִכַּנְתִּי עַמּוּדֶיהָ סֶּלָה׃
5 אָמַרְתִּי לַהֹולְלִים אַל־תָּהֹלּוּ וְלָרְשָׁעִים אַל־תָּרִימוּ קָרֶן׃
6 אַל־תָּרִימוּ לַמָּרֹום קַרְנְכֶם תְּדַבְּרוּ בְצַוָּאר עָתָק׃
7 כִּי לֹא מִמֹּוצָא וּמִמַּעֲרָב וְלֹא מִמִּדְבַּר הָרִים׃
8 כִּי־אֱלֹהִים שֹׁפֵט זֶה יַשְׁפִּיל וְזֶה יָרִים׃
9 כִּי כֹוס בְּיַד־יְהוָה וְיַיִן חָמַר ׀ מָלֵא מֶסֶךְ וַיַּגֵּר מִזֶּה אַךשְְׁ־מָרֶיהָ יִמְצוּ יִשְׁתּוּ כֹּל רִשְׁעֵי־אָרֶץ׃
10 וַאֲנִי אַגִּיד לְעֹלָם אֲזַמְּרָה לֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב׃
11 וְכָל־קַרְנֵי רְשָׁעִים אֲגַדֵּעַ תְּרֹומַמְנָה קַרְנֹות צַדִּיק׃
