< Psalms 75 >

1 We give thanks to you; our God, we thank you. You are close to us, and we proclaim to others the wonderful things that you have done [for us].
阿撒夫的詩歌,交與樂官。 我們感謝您,上主,我們感謝您,稱頌您的名號,傳揚您的奇蹟。
2 [You have said], “I have appointed a time when I will judge people, and I will judge [everyone] fairly.
我規定的日期一旦來臨,我必定要依照公道行審。
3 When the earth shakes and all the creatures on the earth tremble, I am the one who will (keep its foundations steady/prevent it from being destroyed).
大地和眾居民嚇得動搖,但我必使大地支柱堅牢。
4 I say to people who (boast/talk proudly about themselves), ‘Stop bragging!’ and I say to wicked people, ‘Do not proudly [do things to] show how great you are [IDM]!
我對蠻橫者說:不要再蠻橫跋扈!我向糊塗人說:不要再頭角高露!
5 Do not be arrogant, and do not speak so boastfully!’”
不要舉您們的角,反抗至高者,不要再說驕傲的話反抗天主!
6 The one who judges people does not come from the east or from the west, and he does not come from the desert.
的確,救援不從東方來,也不從西方來,救援不從曠野來,也不從山嶺來。
7 God is the one who judges people; he says that some have sinned and must be punished, and that others have not done what is wrong.
因為惟獨天主是審判大主,他將此人貶抑將那人高舉。
8 [It is as though] Yahweh holds a cup in his hand; it is filled with wine that [has spices] mixed in it [to cause those who drink it to become more drunk]; and when Yahweh pours it out, he will force all the wicked people to drink it; they will drink every drop of it, [which means that he will give them all the punishment that they deserve].
爵杯已經握在上主的手掌,裝滿了起沫而調和的酒釀,他已倒出要地上的惡人喝,還要叫他們飲盡杯中的糟粕。
9 But [as for me], I will never stop saying what the God whom Jacob [worshiped has done]; I will never quit singing to praise him.
然而我要永遠歡舞,歌頌雅各伯的天主;
10 He will destroy the power [IDM] of wicked people, but he will cause righteous people to become more powerful.
惡人的角,我要一一打碎,惟有義人的角纔可豎起。
