Psalms 75

1 To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, A Psalm [or] Song of Asaph. To thee, O God, do we give thanks, [to thee] do we give thanks: for [that] thy name is near, thy wondrous works declare.

Načelniku godbe: "Ne pogubi!" psalm Asafu in pesem. Slavimo te, Bog, slavimo; ker blizu je ime tvoje, čuda tvoja oznanjamo.

2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.

Ko bodem sprejel zbor, sodil bodem najbolj pravično.

3 The earth and all its inhabitants are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. (Selah)

Zemlje in vseh njenih prebivalcev stebre omajane utrdil bodem jaz.

4 I said to the fools, Deal not foolishly; and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

Govoreč blaznim: Ne bodite blazni, in krivičnim: Ne dvigujte roga.

5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak [not with] a stiff neck.

Ne dvigujte roga svojega zoper Najvišjega; ne govorite s trdim vratom.

6 For promotion [cometh] neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.

Ker od vzhoda ali od zahoda, tudi od puščave ni povišanja.

7 But God [is] the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

Temuč Bog sodnik: tega poniža, onega poviša.

8 For in the hand of the LORD [there is] a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture, and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs of it all the wicked of the earth shall wring [them] out, [and] drink [them].

Ker čaša je v roki Gospodovi in vino kalno, polno mešanice, iz katere je izlil; vendar goščo njeno, katero bodo iztisnili, pili bodo vsi krivični na zemlji.

9 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

Jaz torej naj oznanjam vekomaj, prepevam Bogu Jakobovemu:

10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; [but] the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

In vse rogove bodem polomil krivičnim; zvišajo naj se pravičnemu rogovi.
