Psalm 75
Thanksgiving for God’s Righteous Judgment
To the Chief Musician. Set to a“Do 1Not Destroy.” a Psalm of Asaph. A Song.
1 We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks!
For Your wondrous works declare that Your name is near.
2 “When I choose the 2proper time,
I will judge uprightly.
3 The earth and all its inhabitants are dissolved;
I set up its pillars firmly.
Selah
4 “I said to the boastful, ‘Do not deal boastfully,’
And to the wicked, b‘Do not 3lift up the horn.
5 Do not lift up your horn on high;
Do not speak with 4a stiff neck.’ ”
6 For exaltation comes neither from the east
Nor from the west nor from the south.
7 But cGod is the Judge:
dHe puts down one,
And exalts another.
8 For ein the hand of the Lord there is a cup,
And the wine is red;
It is fully mixed, and He pours it out;
Surely its dregs shall all the wicked of the earth
Drain and drink down.
I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
