1 We give thanks to you, God. Yes, we give thanks!Your name is near. Your marvelous deeds are declared.
2 God says, "When I decide the time is right,I will establish justice just so.
3 The earth and all its inhabitants will melt,but I will keep its pillars steady." Selah
4 I said to the arrogant,"Don’t be arrogant!"To the wicked I said,"Don’t exalt your strength!
5 Don’t exalt your strength so highly.Don’t speak so arrogantly against the rock."
6 Because what exalts someonedoesn’t come from the east or west;it’s not from the south either.
7 Rather it is God who is the judge.He brings this person down,but that person he lifts up.
