Psalms 75
|
For the Chief Musician; [set to] Al-tash-heth. A Psalm of Asaph; a song. We give thanks unto thee, O God; We give thanks, for thy name is near: Men tell of thy wondrous works. | To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. A Psalm. Of Asaph. A Song.To you, O God, we give praise, to you we give praise: and those who give honour to your name make clear your works of power. |
When I shall find the set time, I will judge uprightly. | When the right time has come, I will be the judge in righteousness. |
The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I have set up the pillars of it. Selah | When the earth and all its people become feeble, I am the support of its pillars. (Selah.) |
I said unto the arrogant, Deal not arrogantly; And to the wicked, Lift not up the horn: | I say to the men of pride, Let your pride be gone: and to the sinners, Let not your horn be lifted up. |
Lift not up your horn on high; Speak not with a stiff neck. | Let not your horn be lifted up: let no more words of pride come from your outstretched necks. |
For neither from the east, nor from the west, Nor yet from the south, [cometh] lifting up. | For honour does not come from the east, or from the west, or uplifting from the south; |
But God is the judge: He putteth down one, and lifteth up another. | But God is the judge, putting down one, and lifting up another. |
For in the hand of Jehovah there is a cup, and the wine foameth; It is full of mixture, and he poureth out of the same: Surely the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall drain them, and drink them. | For in the hand of the Lord is a cup, and the wine is red; it is well mixed, overflowing from his hand: he will make all the sinners of the earth take of it, even to the last drop. |
But I will declare for ever, I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. | But I will ever be full of joy, making songs of praise to the God of Jacob. |
All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; But the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up. | By him will all the horns of the sinners be cut off; but the horns of the upright will be lifted up. |
