Psalm 75 ~ Psalm 75

picture

1 W e give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks, For Your name is near; Men declare Your wondrous works.

Unto thee we give thanks, O God, we give thanks; and thy name is near: thy marvellous works declare it.

2 When I select an appointed time, It is I who judge with equity.

When I shall receive the assembly, I will judge with equity.

3 The earth and all who dwell in it melt; It is I who have firmly set its pillars. Selah.

The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I have established its pillars. Selah.

4 I said to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’ And to the wicked, ‘ Do not lift up the horn;

I said unto the boastful, Boast not; and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

5 D o not lift up your horn on high, Do not speak with insolent pride.’”

Lift not up your horn on high; speak not arrogantly with a neck.

6 F or not from the east, nor from the west, Nor from the desert comes exaltation;

For not from the east nor from the west, nor yet from the south doth exaltation:

7 B ut God is the Judge; He puts down one and exalts another.

For God is the judge; he putteth down one and exalteth another.

8 F or a cup is in the hand of the Lord, and the wine foams; It is well mixed, and He pours out of this; Surely all the wicked of the earth must drain and drink down its dregs.

For in the hand of Jehovah there is a cup, and it foameth with wine, it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same; yea, the dregs thereof shall all the wicked of the earth drain off, drink.

9 B ut as for me, I will declare it forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

But as for me, I will declare for ever; I will sing psalms to the God of Jacob.

10 A nd all the horns of the wicked He will cut off, But the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.

And all the horns of the wicked will I cut off; the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
