Because what exalts someone
    doesn’t come from the east or west;
    it’s not from the south either.
Rather it is God who is the judge.
    He brings this person down,
        but that person he lifts up.
Indeed, there’s a cup in the Lord’s hand
    full of foaming wine, mixed with spice.
    He will pour it out,
    and all of the earth’s wicked people
    must drink it;
    they must drink every last drop!

    He brings one down, he exalts another.(B)

    full of foaming wine mixed(C) with spices;
he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth
    drink it down to its very dregs.(D)
