- Chapter 75 -

We thank you, for your name is near

(Romans 2:1-16)

We give thanks to You, O God; we give thanks, for Your Name is near. The people declare Your wondrous works.

“When I choose a time, I will judge fairly.

When the earth and all its dwellers quake, it is I who bear up its pillars.

Selah I say to the proud, ‘Do not boast,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn.

Do not lift up your horn against heaven or speak with an outstretched neck.’”

For exaltation comes neither from east nor west, nor out of the desert,

but it is God who judges; He brings down one and exalts another.

For 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 drink it down to the dregs.

But I will proclaim Him

(a)

forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.

“All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of the righteous will be exalted.”

(a)75:9 Or proclaim it

We thank you, for your name is near

(Romans 2:1-16)

We give thanks to you, God. We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works.

When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly.

The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. Selah.

I said to the arrogant, “Don’t boast!” I said to the wicked, “Don’t lift up the horn.

Don’t lift up your horn on high. Don’t speak with a stiff neck.”

For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.

But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another.

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.

But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
