New Century Version NCV
English Standard Version ESV
1 God, we thank you; we thank you because you are near. We tell about the miracles you do.
1
We give thanks to you, O God; we give thanks, for your name is near. We recount your wondrous deeds.
2 You say, "I set the time for trial, and I will judge fairly.
2
“At the set time that I appoint I will judge with equity.
3 The earth with all its people may shake, but I am the one who holds it steady. Selah
3
When the earth totters, and all its inhabitants, it is I who keep steady its pillars. Selah
4 I say to those who are proud, 'Don't brag,' and to the wicked, 'Don't show your power.
4
I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast, ’and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn;
5 Don't try to use your power against heaven. Don't be stubborn.'"
5
do not lift up your horn on high, or speak with haughty neck. ’”
6 No one from the east or the west or the desert can judge you.
6
For not from the east or from the west and not from the wilderness comes lifting up,
7 God is the judge; he judges one person as guilty and another as innocent.
7
but it is God who executes judgment, putting down one and lifting up another.
8 The Lord holds a cup of anger in his hand; it is full of wine mixed with spices. He pours it out even to the last drop, and the wicked drink it all.
8
For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup with foaming wine, well mixed, and he pours out from it, and all the wicked of the earth shall drain it down to the dregs.
9 I will tell about this forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.
9
But I will declare it forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 He will take all power away from the wicked, but the power of good people will grow.
10
All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
