Psalms 75:2-10 ▼

2 When I shall take tyme fyt for the purpose: I wyll iudge accordyng vnto ryght.

3 The earth wasteth and all the inhabitours therof: I haue vpholded the pyllours of it. Selah.

4 I sayd vnto fooles deale not so madly: & to the vngodly set not vp your horne.

5 Set not vp your horne an high: and speake not with a stiffe necke.

6 Because promotion commeth neither from the east nor from the west: nor yet from the south.

7 For God is the iudge: it is he that putteth downe one, and setteth vp another.

8 For in the hande of God there is a cup, and the wine is redde: it is full mixt, and he powreth out the same. (75:9) But the vngodly of the earth do wring out: and drynke the dregges therof.

9 (75:10) As for me I wyll euer set foorth in wordes the Lorde : I wyll sing psalmes to the God of Iacob.

10 (75:11) And I wyll breake all the hornes of the vngodly: but the hornes of the ryghteous shalbe exalted.
