| 1 | To the Chief Musician. Set to `Do Not Destroy.` A Psalm of Asaph. A Song. We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks! For Your wondrous works declare that Your name is near. |
| 2 | "When I choose the proper time, I will judge uprightly. |
| 3 | The earth and all its inhabitants are dissolved; I set up its pillars firmly. Selah |
| 4 | `I said to the boastful, `Do not deal boastfully,` And to the wicked, `Do not lift up the horn. |
| 5 | Do not lift up your horn on high; Do not speak with a stiff neck.` " |
| 6 | For exaltation comes neither from the east Nor from the west nor from the south. |
| 7 | But God is the Judge: He puts down one, And exalts another. |
| 8 | For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, And the wine is red; It is fully mixed, and He pours it out; Surely its dregs shall all the wicked of the earth Drain and drink down. |
| 9 | But I will declare forever, I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. |
| 10 | `All the horns of the wicked I will also cut off, But the horns of the righteous shall be exalted." |
