1 We give you thanks, O God, we give you thanks, ♦︎
for your name is near, as your wonderful deeds declare.
2 I will seize the appointed time; ♦︎
I, the Lord, will judge with equity.
3 Though the earth reels and all that dwell in her, ♦︎
it is I that hold her pillars steady.
4 To the boasters I say, Boast no longer, ♦︎
and to the wicked, Do not lift up your horn.
5 Do not lift up your horn on high; ♦︎
do not speak with a stiff neck.
6 For neither from the east nor from the west, ♦︎
nor yet from the wilderness comes exaltation.
7 But God alone is judge; ♦︎
he puts down one and raises up another.
8 For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, ♦︎
well mixed and full of foaming wine.
9 He pours it out for all the wicked of the earth; ♦︎
they shall drink it, and drain the dregs.
10 But I will rejoice for ever ♦︎
and make music to the God of Jacob.
11 All the horns of the wicked will I break, ♦︎
but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
1 Sing to the Lord a new song; ♦︎
sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord and bless his name; ♦︎
tell out his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations ♦︎
and his wonders among all peoples.
4 For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; ♦︎
he is more to be feared than all gods.
5 For all the gods of the nations are but idols; ♦︎
it is the Lord who made the heavens.
6 Honour and majesty are before him; ♦︎
power and splendour are in his sanctuary.
7 Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples; ♦︎
ascribe to the Lord honour and strength.
8 Ascribe to the Lord the honour due to his name; ♦︎
bring offerings and come into his courts.
9 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; ♦︎
let the whole earth tremble before him.
10 Tell it out among the nations that the Lord is king. ♦︎
He has made the world so firm that it cannot be moved;
he will judge the peoples with equity.
11 Let the heavens rejoice and let the earth be glad; ♦︎
let the sea thunder and all that is in it;
12 Let the fields be joyful and all that is in them; ♦︎
let all the trees of the wood shout for joy before the Lord.
13 For he comes, he comes to judge the earth; ♦︎
with righteousness he will judge the world
and the peoples with his truth.
