1 Unto the end, corrupt not, a psalm of a canticle for Asaph.1 Unto the end. With Praises. A Psalm of Asaph. A Canticle to the Assyrians.
2 We will praise thee, O God: we will praise, and we will call upon thy name. We will relate thy wondrous works:2 In Judea, God is known. In Israel, his name is great.
3 when I shall take a time, I will judge justices.3 And his place has been formed with peace. And his dwelling place is in Zion.
4 The earth is melted, and all that dwell therein: I have established the pillars thereof.4 In that place, he has broken the powers of the bows, the shield, the sword, and the battle.
5 I said to the wicked: Do not act wickedly: and to the sinners: Lift not up the horn.5 You illuminate wondrously from the mountains of eternity.
6 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not iniquity against God.6 All the foolish of heart have been disturbed. They have slept their sleep, and all the men of riches have found nothing in their hands.
7 For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert hills:7 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, those who were mounted on horseback have fallen asleep.
8 for God is the judge. One he putteth down, and another he lifteth up:8 You are terrible, and so, who can withstand you? From thence is your wrath.
9 for in the hand of the Lord there is a cup of strong wine full of mixture. And he hath poured it out from this to that: but the dregs thereof are not emptied: all the sinners of the earth shall drink.9 You have caused judgment to be heard from heaven. The earth trembled and was quieted,
10 But I will declare for ever: I will sing to the God of Jacob.10 when God rose up in judgment in order to bring salvation to all the meek of the earth.
11 And I will break all the horns of sinners: but the horns of the just shall be exalted.11 For the thinking of man will confess to you, and the legacy of his thinking will keep a feast day to you.
12 Make vows and pay them to the Lord, your God. All you who surround him bring gifts: to him who is terrible,
13 even to him who takes away the spirit of leaders, to him who is terrible with the kings of the earth.
