Psalm 74 (75)

1 In finem, ne corrumpas. Psalmus cantici Asaph.

1 Unto the end, corrupt not, a psalm of a canticle for Asaph.

2 Confitebimur tibi, Deus, confitebimur, et invocabimus nomen tuum ; narrabimus mirabilia tua.

2 We will praise thee, O God: we will praise, and we will call upon thy name. We will relate thy wondrous works:

3 Cum accepero tempus, ego justitias judicabo.

3 When I shall take a time, I will judge justices.

4 Liquefacta est terra et omnes qui habitant in ea : ego confirmavi columnas ejus.

4 The earth is melted, and all that dwell therein: I have established the pillars thereof.

5 Dixi iniquis : Nolite inique agere : et delinquentibus : Nolite exaltare cornu :

5 I said to the wicked: Do not act wickedly: and to the sinners: Lift not up the horn.

6 nolite extollere in altum cornu vestrum ; nolite loqui adversus Deum iniquitatem.

6 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not iniquity against God.

7 Quia neque ab oriente, neque ab occidente, neque a desertis montibus :

7 For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert hills:

8 quoniam Deus judex est. Hunc humiliat, et hunc exaltat :

8 For God is the judge. One he putteth down, and another he lifteth up:

9 quia calix in manu Domini vini meri, plenus misto. Et inclinavit ex hoc in hoc ; verumtamen fæx ejus non est exinanita : bibent omnes peccatores terræ.

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.

10 Ego autem annuntiabo in sæculum ; cantabo Deo Jacob :

10 But I will declare for ever: I will sing to the God of Jacob.

11 et omnia cornua peccatorum confringam, et exaltabuntur cornua justi.

11 And I will break all the horns of sinners: but the horns of the just shall be exalted.
