We Give Thanks

March 8th, 2009. Filed under: Sunday Scriptures.

We give thanks to you, O God; we give thanks; your name is near.  People tell of your wondrous deeds.

At the set time that I appoint I will judge with equity.  When the earth totters, with all its inhabitants, it is I who keep its pillars steady.  I say to the boastful, “Do not boast,” and to the wicked, “Do not lift up your horn; do not lift up your horn on high or speak with insolent neck.”

For not from the east or from the west and not from the wilderness comes lifting up; but it is God who executes judgment, putting down one and lifting up another.  For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup with foaming wine, well mixed; he will pour a draught from it and all the wicked of the earth shall drain it down to the dregs.  But I will rejoice forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of righteous shall be exalted.

Psalm 75
