Psalm 75

Psalm 75

God Judges the Wicked

For the choir director: “Do Not Destroy.” ^lA psalm of Asaph. ^mA song.

¹We give thanks to You, God;

we give thanks to You, for Your name is near.

People tell about Your wonderful works. ⁿ

²“When I choose a time,

I will judge fairly. ^o

³When the earth and all its inhabitants shake,

I am the One who steadies its pillars. ^pSelah

⁴I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’

and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn. ^q

⁵Do not lift up your horn against heaven

or speak arrogantly.’ ” ^r

⁶Exaltation does not come

from the east, the west, or the desert,

⁷for God is the Judge:

He brings down one and exalts another. ^s

⁸For there is a cup in the Lord’s hand,

full of wine blended with spices, and He pours from it.

All the wicked of the earth will drink,

draining it to the dregs. ^t

⁹As for me, I will tell about Him forever;

I will sing praise to the God of Jacob. ^u

¹⁰“I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, ^v

but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.” ^w
