Psalm 75

For the Chief Musician; set to Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.

1We give thanks unto thee, O God;

We give thanks, for thy name is near:

Men tell of thy wondrous works.

2When I shall find the set time,

I will judge uprightly.

3The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved:

I have set up the pillars of it. Selah

4I said unto the arrogant, Deal not arrogantly;

And to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

5Lift not up your horn on high;

Speak not with a stiff neck.

6For neither from the east, nor from the west,

Nor yet from the south, cometh lifting up.

7But God is the judge:

He putteth down one, and lifteth up another.

8For in the hand of Jehovah there is a cup, and the wine foameth;

It is full of mixture, and he poureth out of the same:

Surely the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall drain them, and drink them.

9But I will declare for ever,

I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off;

But the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.

About American Standard Version

The ASV has long been regarded by many scholars as the most literal English translation since the King James Version—maybe the most literal translation ever. This has made the translation very popular for careful English Bible study, but not for ease of reading. While the KJV was translated entirely from “western manuscripts,” the ASV 1901 was influenced also by the older “eastern manuscripts” that form the basis for most of our modern English translations. Because the ASV 1901 is very difficult to find in print, Logos is pleased to be able to preserve and distribute this significant work. This is an excellent choice for comparative English study.
