Psalm 75

תהילים
✦

1For the leader; al tashḥeth.A psalm of Asaph, a song.

2We praise You, O God;we praise You;Your presence is near;men tell of Your wondrous deeds.

3“At the time I choose,I will give judgment equitably.

4Earth and all its inhabitants dissolve;it is I who keep its pillars firm. Selah.

5To wanton men I say, ‘Do not be wanton!’to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns!’”

6Do not lift your horns up highin vainglorious bluster.

7For what lifts a man comes not from the eastor the west or the wilderness;

8for God it is who gives judgment;He brings down one man, He lifts up another.

9There is a cup in the LORD’s handwith foaming wine fully mixed;from this He pours;all the wicked of the earth drink,draining it to the very dregs.

10As for me, I will declare forever,I will sing a hymn to the God of Jacob.

11“All the horns of the wicked I will cut;but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.”
