2. When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
3. The earth and all inhabitants are dissolved: I hold up the pillars of it. Selah.
4. I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5. Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
6. For promotion comes neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
