To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, A Psalm or Song of Asaph.

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.

2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.

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.

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.

1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ אַל־תַּשְׁחֵת מִזְמֹור לְאָסָף שִׁיר׃

2 הֹודִינוּ לְּךָ ׀ אֱ‍לֹהִים הֹודִינוּ וְקָרֹוב שְׁמֶךָ סִפְּרוּ נִפְלְאֹותֶיךָ׃

3 כִּי אֶקַּח מֹועֵד אֲנִי מֵישָׁרִים אֶשְׁפֹּט׃

4 נְמֹגִים אֶרֶץ וְכָל־יֹשְׁבֶיהָ אָנֹכִי תִכַּנְתִּי עַמּוּדֶיהָ סֶּלָה׃

5 אָמַרְתִּי לַהֹולְלִים אַל־תָּהֹלּוּ וְלָרְשָׁעִים אַל־תָּרִימוּ קָרֶן׃

6 אַל־תָּרִימוּ לַמָּרֹום קַרְנְכֶם תְּדַבְּרוּ בְצַוָּאר עָתָק׃

7 כִּי לֹא מִמֹּוצָא וּמִמַּעֲרָב וְלֹא מִמִּדְבַּר הָרִים׃

8 כִּי־אֱלֹהִים שֹׁפֵט זֶה יַשְׁפִּיל וְזֶה יָרִים׃

9 כִּי כֹוס בְּיַד־יְהוָה וְיַיִן חָמַר ׀ מָלֵא מֶסֶךְ וַיַּגֵּר מִזֶּה אַךשְְׁ־מָרֶיהָ יִמְצוּ יִשְׁתּוּ כֹּל רִשְׁעֵי־אָרֶץ׃

10 וַאֲנִי אַגִּיד לְעֹלָם אֲזַמְּרָה לֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב׃

11 וְכָל־קַרְנֵי רְשָׁעִים אֲגַדֵּעַ תְּרֹומַמְנָה קַרְנֹות צַדִּיק׃
