For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A Psalm by Asaph. A song.

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 Yahweh’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.

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。
