Psalm 75:1-10

To the director. Set to the melody “Do Not Bring to Ruin.” Of Aʹsaph.+ A song. 75  We give thanks to you, O God, we give thanks to you;Your name is near,+And people declare your wondrous works.  2  You say: “When I set a time,I judge with fairness.  3  When the earth and all its inhabitants were dissolved,It was I who kept its pillars firm.” (Selah)  4  I say to the boastful, “Do not boast,” And to the wicked, “Do not exalt your strength.*  5  Do not exalt your strength* up highOr speak with arrogance.  6  For exaltation does not comeFrom the east or the west or the south.  7  For God is Judge.+ He puts one man down and exalts another.+  8  For there is a cup in Jehovah’s hand;+The wine is foaming and is fully mixed. He will surely pour it out,And all the wicked of the earth will drink it, down to the dregs.”+  9  But as for me, I will proclaim it forever;I will sing praises* to the God of Jacob. 10  For he says: “I will cut off all the strength* of the wicked,But the strength* of the righteous will be exalted.”
