- Chapter 75 -

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.

We thank you, for your name is near

(Romans 2:1-16)
1
Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.(a) (b)
2
When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.(c)
3
The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
4
I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5
Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
6
For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.(d)
7
But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
8
For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
9
But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10
All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
