Psalm 75
For the Chief Musician. To the tune of �Do Not Destroy.� A Psalm by Asaph. A song.
1 We give thanks to you, Elohim.
We give thanks, for your Name is near.
Men tell about your wondrous works.
2 When I choose the appointed time,
I will judge blamelessly.
3 The earth and all its inhabitants quake.
I firmly hold its pillars.
Selah.
4 I said to the arrogant, �Don�t boast!�
I said to the wicked, �Don�t lift up the horn.
5 Don�t lift up your horn on high.
Don�t speak with a stiff neck.�
6 For neither from the east, nor from the west,
nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.
7 But Elohim is the judge.
He puts down one, and lifts up another.
8 For in Yehowah�s hand there is a cup,
full of foaming wine mixed with spices.
He pours it out.
Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs.
9 But I will declare this forever:
I will sing praises to the Elohim of Jacob.
10 I will cut off all the horns of the wicked,
but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
