For the Chief Musician; set to Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.

1 We give thanks unto thee, O God;

We give thanks, for thy name is near:

Men tell of thy wondrous works.

2 When I shall find the set time,

I will judge uprightly.

3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved:

I have set up the pillars of it. [Selah

4 I said unto the arrogant, Deal not arrogantly;

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 neither from the east, nor from the west,

Nor yet from the south, cometh lifting up.

7 But God is the judge:

He putteth down one, and lifteth up another.

8 For in the hand of Jehovah there is a cup, and the wine foameth;

It is full of mixture, and he poureth out of the same:

Surely the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall drain them, 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 lifted up.

歌一首，亚萨的诗，交给诗班长，调用"休要毁坏"。 1 　神啊！我们称谢你，我们称谢你，

因为你*"你"原文作"你的名"接近人，

人都述说你奇妙的作为。

2 你说："我选定了日期，

我要按公正施行审判。

3 地和地上的居民都因惧怕而融化，

我却使大地的柱子坚立。

*细拉

4 我对狂傲的人说：‘不要行事狂傲’；

对邪恶的人说：‘不要举角，

5 不要高举你们的角，

不要挺着傲慢的颈项说话。’"

6 高升不是从东面来，不是从西面来，

也不是旷野来，

7 而是由　神来决定；

他使这人降卑，使那人升高。

8 原来耶和华的手里有杯，

装满了起沫和混杂各种香料的酒；

他把酒从杯里倒出来，地上所有的恶人都必定要喝，

甚至连酒的渣滓都要喝尽。

9 至于我，我要永远传扬，

我要向雅各的　神歌唱。

10 所有恶人的角，我都要砍断，

只有义人的角必被高举。
