1Unto the end, corrupt not, a psalm of a canticle for Asaph.
1 Why, OGod, hast thou cast off for ever? [why] doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
2We will praise thee, O God: we will praise, and we will call upon thy name. We will relate thy wondrous works:
2 Remember thine assembly, which thou hast purchased of old, which thou hast redeemed [to be] the portion of thine inheritance, this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt.
3When I shall take a time, I will judge justices.
3 Lift up thy steps unto the perpetual desolations: everything in the sanctuary hath the enemy destroyed.
4The earth is melted, and all that dwell therein: I have established the pillars thereof.
4 Thine adversaries roar in the midst of thy place of assembly; they set up their signs [for] signs.
5I said to the wicked: Do not act wickedly: and to the sinners: Lift not up the horn.
5 [A man] was known as he could lift up axes in the thicket of trees;
6Lift not up your horn on high: speak not iniquity against God.
6 And now they break down its carved work altogether, with hatchets and hammers.
7For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert hills:
7 They have set on fire thy sanctuary, they have profaned the habitation of thy name to the ground.
8For God is the judge. One he putteth down, and another he lifteth up:
8 They said in their heart, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up allGod's places of assembly in the land.
9For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup of strong wine full of mixture. And he hath poured it out from this to that: but the dregs thereof are not emptied: all the sinners of the earth shall drink.
9 We see not our signs; there is no more any prophet, neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.
10But I will declare for ever: I will sing to the God of Jacob.
10 How long, OGod, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy contemn thy name for ever?
11And I will break all the horns of sinners: but the horns of the just shall be exalted.
11 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, and thy right hand? [pluck it] out of thy bosom: consume [them].
