Psalms 75

1 [For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A Psalm by Asaph. A song.] We give thanks to you, God. We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works.

לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ אַל־תַּשְׁחֵ֑ת מִזְמֹ֖ור לְאָסָ֣ף שִֽׁיר׃ הֹ֘ודִ֤ינוּ לְּךָ֨ ׀ אֱ‍ֽלֹהִ֗ים הֹ֭ודִינוּ וְקָרֹ֣וב שְׁמֶ֑ךָ סִ֝פְּר֗וּ נִפְלְאֹותֶֽיךָ׃

2 When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly.

כִּ֭י אֶקַּ֣ח מֹועֵ֑ד אֲ֝נִ֗י מֵישָׁרִ֥ים אֶשְׁפֹּֽט׃

3 The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. (Selah)

נְֽמֹגִ֗ים אֶ֥רֶץ וְכָל־יֹשְׁבֶ֑יהָ אָנֹכִ֨י תִכַּ֖נְתִּי עַמּוּדֶ֣יהָ סֶּֽלָה׃

4 I said to the arrogant, "Do not boast." I said to the wicked, "Do not lift up the horn.

אָמַ֣רְתִּי לַֽ֭הֹולְלִים אַל־תָּהֹ֑לּוּ וְ֝לָרְשָׁעִ֗ים אַל־תָּרִ֥ימוּ קָֽרֶן׃

5 Do not lift up your horn on high. Do not speak with a stiff neck."

אַל־תָּרִ֣ימוּ לַמָּרֹ֣ום קַרְנְכֶ֑ם תְּדַבְּר֖וּ בְצַוָּ֣אר עָתָֽק׃

6 For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.

כִּ֤י לֹ֣א מִ֭מֹּוצָא וּמִֽמַּעֲרָ֑ב וְ֝לֹ֗א מִמִּדְבַּ֥ר הָרִֽים׃

7 But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another.

כִּֽי־אֱלֹהִ֥ים שֹׁפֵ֑ט זֶ֥ה יַ֝שְׁפִּ֗יל וְזֶ֣ה יָרִֽים׃

8 For in the hand of YHWH there is a cup, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours it out. Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs.

כִּ֤י כֹ֪וס בְּֽיַד־יְהוָ֡ה וְיַ֤יִן חָמַ֨ר ׀ מָ֥לֵא מֶסֶךְ֮ וַיַּגֵּ֪ר מִ֫זֶּ֥ה אַךְ־שְׁ֭מָרֶיהָ יִמְצ֣וּ יִשְׁתּ֑וּ כֹּ֝֗ל רִשְׁעֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃

9 But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

וַ֭אֲנִי אַגִּ֣יד לְעֹלָ֑ם אֲ֝זַמְּרָ֗ה לֵאלֹהֵ֥י יַעֲקֹֽב׃

10 I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.

וְכָל־קַרְנֵ֣י רְשָׁעִ֣ים אֲגַדֵּ֑עַ תְּ֝רֹומַ֗מְנָה קַֽרְנֹ֥ות צַדִּֽיק׃
