2“When I see my time, Then will I judge with equity.
3The earth trembleth, and all her inhabitants; But I uphold her pillars.”
4I say to the proud, Behave not proudly! To the wicked, Lift not up your horn!
5Lift not up your horn on high, And speak not with a stiff neck!
6For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south;
7But it is God that judgeth; He putteth down one, and setteth up another.
8For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup; The wine is foaming and full of spices, And of it he poureth out; Even to the dregs shall all the wicked of the earth drink it.
9Therefore I will extol him for ever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.
