1 (74-1) <Unto the end, corrupt not, a psalm of a canticle for Asaph.> (74-2) We will praise thee, O God: we will praise, and we will call upon thy name. We will relate thy wondrous works:
1
We praise you, God, we praise you, for your Name is near; people tell of your wonderful deeds.

3
When the earth and all its people quake, it is I who hold its pillars firm.
4 (74-5) I said to the wicked: Do not act wickedly: and to the sinners: Lift not up the horn.
4
To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.
5 (74-6) Lift not up your horn on high: speak not iniquity against God.
5
Do not lift your horns against heaven; do not speak so defiantly.’ ”

6
No one from the east or the west or from the desert can exalt themselves.

7
It is God who judges: He brings one down, he exalts another.

9 (74-10) But I will declare for ever: I will sing to the God of Jacob.
9
As for me, I will declare this forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob,
10 (74-11) And I will break all the horns of sinners: but the horns of the just shall be exalted.
10
who says, “I will cut off the horns of all the wicked, but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”
