< 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].
A ti, oh Dios, te alabamos, a ti alabamos; y los que honran tu nombre aclaran tus obras de poder.
2 [You have said], “I have appointed a time when I will judge people, and I will judge [everyone] fairly.
Cuando haya llegado el tiempo correcto, seré el juez en rectitud.
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).
Cuando la tierra y toda su gente se debilitan, yo soy el sostén de sus pilares. (Selah)
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]!
Digo a los hombres de soberbia: que se haya ido tu orgullo, y a los pecadores: no se levante tu orgullo.
5 Do not be arrogant, and do not speak so boastfully!’”
No se levante tu orgullo; no dejes más palabras de soberbia en tus cuellos estirados.
6 The one who judges people does not come from the east or from the west, and he does not come from the desert.
Porque el honor no viene del este, ni del oeste, ni del sur;
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.
Pero Dios es el juez, a éste humilla y levanta a otro.
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].
Porque en la mano del Señor hay una copa, y el vino es rojo; está bien mezclado, desbordando de su mano: hará que todos los pecadores de la tierra se apoderen de él, hasta la última gota.
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.
Pero estaré siempre lleno de gozo, haciendo canciones de alabanza al Dios de Jacob.
10 He will destroy the power [IDM] of wicked people, but he will cause righteous people to become more powerful.
Por él cortará todos los poderíos de los pecadores; pero él poder de los rectos se levantará.
