Psalms 75
1 To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. A Psalm. Of Asaph. A Song. To you, O God, we give praise, to you we give praise: and those who give honour to your name make clear your works of power.
Unto thee, O Elohim, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
2 When the right time has come, I will be the judge in righteousness.
When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
3 When the earth and all its people become feeble, I am the support of its pillars. (Selah)
The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. (Selah)
4 I say to the men of pride, Let your pride be gone: and to the sinners, Let not your horn be lifted up.
I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5 Let not your horn be lifted up: let no more words of pride come from your outstretched necks.
Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
6 For honour does not come from the east, or from the west, or uplifting from the south;
For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
7 But God is the judge, putting down one, and lifting up another.
But Elohim is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
8 For in the hand of the Lord is a cup, and the wine is red; it is well mixed, overflowing from his hand: he will make all the sinners of the earth take of it, even to the last drop.
For in the hand of YHWH there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
9 But I will ever be full of joy, making songs of praise to the God of Jacob.
But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the Elohim of Jacob.
10 By him will all the horns of the sinners be cut off; but the horns of the upright will be lifted up.
All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
