Psalm 75, Chant C

 

Psalm 75   Confitebimur tibi

1 We give you thanks, O God, we give you thanks, *
calling upon your Name and declaring all your won-der-ful deeds.

2 “I will appoint a time,”says God; *
“I will judge with e-quity.

3 Though the earth and all its inhabi-tants are quak-ing, *
I will make its pil-lars fast.

4 I will say to the boasters, ‘Boast no more,’ *
and to the wicked, ‘Do not toss your horns;

5 Do not toss your horns so high, *
nor speak with a proud neck.'”

6 For judgment is neither from the east nor from the west, *
nor yet from the wilderness or the moun-tains.

7 It is God who ju-dges; *
he puts down one and lifts up a-no-ther.

8 For in the LORD’S hand there is a cup, full of spiced and foaming wine, which he pours out, *
and all the wicked of the earth shall drink and drain the dregs.

9 But I will re-joice for ev-er; *
I will sing praises to the God of Ja-cob.

10 He shall break off all the horns of the wic-ked; *
but the horns of the righteous shall be ex-al-ted.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Ho-ly Spir-it: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ev-er. A-men.
