Psalms 75

1 For the choirmaster: To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Psalm of Asaph. A song. We give thanks to You, O God; we give thanks, for Your Name is near. The people declare Your wondrous works.

「滅すなかれ」といふ調にあはせて伶長にうたはしめたるアサフの歌なり讃美なり 神よわれら汝にかんしやすわれら感謝すなんぢの名はちかく坐せばなり もろもろの人はなんぢの奇しき事跡をかたりあへり

2 “When I choose a time, I will judge fairly.

定りたる時いたらば我なほき審判をなさん

3 When the earth and all its dwellers quake, it is I who bear up its pillars.

地とすべての之にすむものと消去しとき我そのもろもろの柱をたてたり (セラ)

4 I say to the proud, ‘Do not boast,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn.

われ誇れるものに誇りかにおこなふなかれといひ 惡きものに角をあぐるなかれといへり

5 Do not lift up your horn against heaven or speak with an outstretched neck.’”

なんぢらの角をたかく挙るなかれ頚をかたくして高りいふなかれ

6 For exaltation comes neither from east nor west, nor out of the desert,

挙ることは東よりにあらず西よりにあらずまた南よりにもあらざるなり

7 but it is God who judges; He brings down one and exalts another.

ただ神のみ審士にましませば此をさげ彼をあげたまふ

8 For a cup is in the hand of the LORD, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours from His cup, and all the wicked of the earth drink it down to the dregs.

ヱホバの手にさかづきありて酒あわだてり その中にものまじりてみつ 神これをそそぎいだせり 誠にその滓は地のすべてのあしき者しぼりて飮むべし

9 But I will proclaim Him forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.

されど我はヤコブの神をのべつたへん とこしへに讃うたはん

10 “All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of the righteous will be exalted.”

われ惡きもののすべての角をきりはなたん 義きものの角はあげらるべし
