Salmos 75
1 Al Músico principal: sobre No destruyas: Salmo de Asaph: Cántico. ALABARÉMOSTE, oh Dios, alabaremos; que cercano está tu nombre: cuenten tus maravillas.
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 Cuando yo tuviere tiempo, yo juzgaré rectamente.
[You have said], “I have appointed a time when I will judge people, and I will judge [everyone] fairly.
3 Arruinábase la tierra y sus moradores: yo sostengo sus 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 Dije á los insensatos: No os infatuéis; y á los impíos: No levantéis el cuerno:
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 No levantéis en alto vuestro cuerno; no habléis con cerviz erguida.
Do not be arrogant, and do not speak so boastfully!’”
6 Porque ni de oriente, ni de occidente, ni del desierto [viene] el ensalzamiento.
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 Dios es el juez: á éste abate, y á aquél ensalza.
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 el cáliz está en la mano de Jehová, y el vino es tinto, lleno de mistura; y él derrama del mismo: ciertamente sus heces chuparán y beberán todos los impíos de la tierra.
[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 Mas yo anunciaré siempre, cantaré alabanzas al Dios 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 Y quebraré todos los cuernos de los pecadores: los cuernos del justo serán ensalzados.
He will destroy the power [IDM] of wicked people, but he will cause righteous people to become more powerful.
