Psalms 75

God Abases the Proud, but Exalts the Righteous.

For the choir director; set to Lit Do Not DestroyAl-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.

1We 1giveH3034 thanksH3034 to You, O GodH430, we giveH3034 thanksH3034, For Your nameH8034 is 2nearH7138; Men declareH5608 3Your wondrousH6381 worksH6381.2“WhenH3588 I selectH3947 an 4appointedH4150 timeH4150, It is I who 5judgeH8199 with equityH4339.3The 6earthH776 and allH3605 who dwellH3427 in it 7meltH4127; It is I who have firmlyH8505 setH8505 its 8pillarsH5982. 9SelahH5542.4I saidH559 to the boastfulH1984, ‘Do not boastH1984,’ And to the wickedH7563, ‘10Do not liftH7311 up the hornH7161;5Do not liftH7311 up your hornH7161 on highH4791, 11Do not speakH1696 with insolentH6277 12prideH6677.’”

6For not from the eastH4161, norH3808 from the westH4628, NorH3808 from the 1314desertH4057 comes exaltationH7311;7But 15GodH430 is the JudgeH8199; He 16putsH8213 downH8213 oneH2088 and exaltsH7311 anotherH2088.8For a 17cupH3563 is in the handH3027 of the LordH3068, and the wineH3196 foamsH2560; It is 1819wellH4392 mixedH4538, and He poursH5064 out of thisH2088; SurelyH389 allH3605 the wickedH7563 of the earthH776 must drainH4680 and 20drinkH8354 downH8354 its dregsH8105.

9But as for me, I will 21declareH5046 it foreverH5769; I will singH2167 praisesH2167 to the GodH430 of JacobH3290.10And allH3605 the 22hornsH7161 of the wickedH7563 23He will cutH1438 offH1438, But 24the hornsH7161 of the righteousH6662 will be liftedH7311 up.
