Confitebimur tibiBCP p. 6911We give you thanks, O God, we give you thanks, *calling upon your Name and declaring all your wonderful deeds.
2“I will appoint a time,” says God; *“I will judge with equity.
3Though the earth and all its inhabitants are quaking, *I will make its pillars fast.
4I will say to the boasters, ‘Boast no more,’ *and to the wicked, ‘Do not toss your horns;
5Do not toss your horns so high, *nor speak with a proud neck.’”
6For judgment is neither from the east nor from the west, *nor yet from the wilderness or the mountains.
7It is God who judges; *he puts down one and lifts up another.
8For in the Lord’s hand there is a cup, full of spiced and foaming wine, which he pours out, *and all the wicked of the earth shall drink and drain the dregs.
9But I will rejoice for ever; *I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10He shall break off all the horns of the wicked; *but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
