I said unto the boastful, Boast not; and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

Lift not up your horn on high; speak not arrogantly with a [stiff] neck.

For not from the east nor from the west, nor yet from the south doth exaltation [come]:

For God is the judge; he putteth down one and exalteth another.

To the arrogant(A) I say, ‘Boast no more,’(B)
    and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.[a](C)
Do not lift your horns against heaven;
    do not speak so defiantly.(D)’”

No one from the east or the west
    or from the desert can exalt themselves.
It is God who judges:(E)
    He brings one down, he exalts another.(F)
