Psalm 75

(from Day 15 Morning Prayer)

Confitebimur tibi

  1. UNTO thee, O God, do we give thanks : yea, unto thee do we give thanks.
  2. Thy Name also is so nigh : and that do thy wondrous works declare.
  3. When I receive the congregation : I shall judge according unto right.
  4. The earth is weak, and all the inhabiters thereof : I bear up the pillars of it.
  5. I said unto the fools, Deal not so madly : and to the ungodly, Set not up your horn.
  6. Set not up your horn on high : and speak not with a stiff neck.
  7. For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west : nor yet from the south.
  8. And why? God is the Judge : he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
  9. For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red : it is full mixed, and he poureth out of the same.
  10. As for the dregs thereof : all the ungodly of the earth shall drink them, and suck them out.
  11. But I will talk of the God of Jacob : and praise him for ever.
  12. All the horns of the ungodly also will I break : and the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
