SelahThe earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. Selah.The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I have set up the pillars of it. [Selah 4I say to the proud, ‘Do not boast,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn.I said to the arrogant, “Don’t boast!” I said to the wicked, “Don’t lift up the horn.I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:I said unto the arrogant, Deal not arrogantly; And to the wicked, Lift not up the horn: 5Do not lift up your horn against heaven or speak with an outstretched neck.’”Don’t lift up your horn on high. Don’t speak with a stiff neck.”Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.Lift not up your horn on high; Speak not with a stiff neck. 6For exaltation comes neither from east nor west, nor out of the desert,For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.For neither from the east, nor from the west, Nor yet from the south, cometh lifting up. 7but it is God who judges; He brings down one and exalts another.But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another.But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.But God is the judge: He putteth down one, and lifteth up another. 8For a cup is in the hand of the LORD, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours from His cup, and all the wicked of the earth drink it down to the dregs.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.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.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. 9But I will proclaim Him forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.But I will declare for ever, I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. 10“All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of the righteous will be exalted.”I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; But the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
