God’s Righteous Judgment For the choirmaster: To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Psalm of Asaph. A song. 1We give thanks to You, O God; we give thanks, for Your Name is near. The people declare Your wondrous works. 2“When I choose a time, 3When the earth and all its dwellers quake, it is I who bear up its pillars. 4I say to the proud, ‘Do not boast,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn. 5Do not lift up your horn against heaven or speak with an outstretched neck.’ ” 6For exaltation comes neither from east nor west, 7but it is God who judges; He brings down one and exalts another. 8For a cup is in the hand of the LORD, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours from His cup, and all the wicked of the earth 9But I will proclaim Hima forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob. 10“All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of the righteous will be exalted.” Footnotes: 9 a Or proclaim it The Berean Bible (www.Berean.Bible) Berean Study Bible (BSB) © 2016, 2020 by Bible Hub and Berean.Bible.
