- Chapter 75 -

We thank you, for your name is near

(Romans 2:1-16)
1
TO THE OVERSEER. “DO NOT DESTROY.” A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG. We have given thanks to You, O God, || We have given thanks, and Your Name [is] near, || They have recounted Your wonders.
2
When I receive an appointment, I judge uprightly.
3
The earth and all its inhabitants are melted, || I have pondered its pillars. Selah.
4
I have said to the boastful, “Do not be boastful,” || And to the wicked, “Do not raise up a horn.”
5
Do not raise up your horn on high || (You speak with a stiff neck).
6
For not from the east, or from the west, || Nor from the wilderness—[is] elevation.
7
But God [is] judging, || This He makes low—and this He lifts up.
8
For a cup [is] in the hand of YHWH, || And the wine has foamed, || It is full of mixture, and He pours out of it, || Surely wring out its dregs, || And all the wicked of the earth drink,
9
And I declare [it] for all time, || I sing praise to the God of Jacob.
10
And I cut off all horns of the wicked, || The horns of the righteous are exalted!

We thank you, for your name is near

(Romans 2:1-16)
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 the LORD’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.
