Salmos 75
1 A ti, ó Deus, glorificamos, a ti damos louvor, pois o teu nome está perto, as tuas maravilhas o declaram.
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].
2 Quando eu occupar o logar determinado, julgarei rectamente.
[You have said], “I have appointed a time when I will judge people, and I will judge [everyone] fairly.
3 A terra e todos os seus moradores estão dissolvidos, mas eu fortaleci as suas columnas (Selah)
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).
4 Disse eu aos loucos: Não enlouqueçaes; e aos impios: Não levanteis a fronte:
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]!
5 Não levanteis a vossa fronte altiva, nem falleis com cerviz dura;
Do not be arrogant, and do not speak so boastfully!’”
6 Porque nem do oriente, nem do occidente, nem do deserto vem a exaltação.
The one who judges people does not come from the east or from the west, and he does not come from the desert.
7 Mas Deus é o Juiz; a um abate, e a outro exalta.
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.
8 Porque na mão do Senhor ha um calix, cujo vinho é roxo; está cheio de mistura; e dá a beber d'elle; mas as fezes d'elle todos os impios da terra as sorverão e beberão.
[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].
9 E eu o declararei para sempre; cantarei louvores ao Deus de Jacob.
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.
10 E quebrarei todas as forças dos impios, mas as forças dos justos serão exaltadas.
He will destroy the power [IDM] of wicked people, but he will cause righteous people to become more powerful.
