We praise you, God,
we praise you, for your Name is near;
people tell of your wonderful deeds.
You say, “I choose the appointed time;
it is I who judge with equity.
When the earth and all its people quake,
it is I who hold its pillars firm.[b]
To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’
and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.[c]
Do not lift your horns against heaven;
do not speak so defiantly.’”
