- Chapter 75 -

We thank you, for your name is near

(Romans 2:1-16)
1
To him that excelleth. Destroy not. A Psalme or song committed toAsaph. We will prayse thee, O God, we will prayse thee, for thy Name is neere: therefore they will declare thy wonderous workes.
2
When I shall take a conuenient time, I will iudge righteously.
3
The earth and all the inhabitantes thereof are dissolued: but I will establish the pillars of it. Selah.
4
I saide vnto the foolish, Be not so foolish, and to the wicked, Lift not vp the horne.
5
Lift not vp your horne on high, neither speake with a stiffe necke.
6
For to come to preferment is neither from the East, nor from the West, nor from the South,
7
But God is the iudge: he maketh lowe and he maketh hie.
8
For in the hand of the Lord is a cup, and the wine is red: it is full mixt, and he powreth out of the same: surely all the wicked of the earth shall wring out and drinke the dregges thereof.
9
But I will declare for euer, and sing prayses vnto the God of Iaakob.
10
All the hornes of the wicked also will I breake: but the hornes of the righteous shalbe 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.
