Psalm 75

Psalm 75

To the Chief Musician. Set to “Do Not Destroy.” a Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

¹We 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.

³The 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.

⁵Do not lift up your horn on high;

Do not speak with ⁴a stiff neck.’ ”

⁶For exaltation comes neither from the east

Nor from the west nor from the south.

⁷But ^cGod is the Judge:

^dHe puts down one,

And exalts another.

⁸For ^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.

⁹But I will declare forever,

I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

¹⁰“All ^fthe ⁵horns of the wicked I will also cut off,

But ^gthe horns of the righteous shall be ^hexalted.”
