PSALM 75
For the choir director; set to Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.
1 We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks, For Your name is near; Men declare Your wondrous works.
2 "When I select an appointed time, It is I who judge with equity.
3 "The earth and all who dwell in it melt; It is I who have firmly set its pillars. - Selah.
4 "I said to the boastful, 'Do not boast,' And to the wicked, 'Do not lift up the horn;
5 Do not lift up your horn on high, Do not speak with insolent pride.' "
6 For not from the east, nor from the west, Nor from the desert comes exaltation;
7 But God is the Judge; He puts down one and exalts another.
8 For 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.
9 But as for me, I will declare it forever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
