Psalms 75

Psalm 75

God Judges the Wicked

For the choir director: “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm of Asaph.#1Ch 16:5,7 A song.

1We give thanks to you, God;

we give thanks to you, for your name is near.#Dt 4:7; Ps 145:18; Is 55:6; Lm 3:57

People tell about your wondrous works.#Ps 26:7

2“When I choose a time,

I will judge fairly.#Ps 9:8; 96:10

3When the earth and all its inhabitants shake,

I am the one who steadies its pillars.#1Sm 2:8; Ps 46:6; Is 24:19Selah

4I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’

and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn.#Pr 27:1; Jr 9:23

5Do not lift up your horn against heaven#75:5 Lit horn to the height

or speak arrogantly.’”#1Sm 2:3; Ps 94:4

6Exaltation does not come

from the east, the west, or the desert,

7for God is the Judge:

He brings down one and exalts another.#1Sm 2:7–8; Ps 50:6; Lk 1:52–53

8For there is a cup in the Lord’s hand,

full of wine blended with spices, and he pours from it.

All the wicked of the earth will drink,

draining it to the dregs.#Is 51:17,22; Jr 25:15–17

9As for me, I will tell about him forever;

I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.#Ps 9:2; 18:49; 81:1

10“I will cut off all the horns of the wicked,#Jr 48:25

but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”#Ps 89:17; 92:10; 148:14
