Psalm 75

¹To the Overseer. — 'Destroy not.' — A Psalm of Asaph. — A Song. We have given thanks to Thee, O God, We have given thanks, and near [is] Thy name, They have recounted Thy wonders.

²When I receive an appointment, I — I do judge uprightly.

³Melted is the earth and all its inhabitants, I — I have pondered its pillars. Selah.

⁴I have said to the boastful, 'Be not boastful,' And to the wicked, 'Raise not up a horn.'

⁵Raise not up on high your horn, (Ye speak with a stiff neck.)

⁶For not from the east, or from the west, Nor from the wilderness — [is] elevation.

⁷But God [is] judge, This He maketh low — and this He lifteth up.

⁸For a cup [is] in the hand of Jehovah, And the wine hath foamed, It is full of mixture, and He poureth out of it, Only its dregs wring out, and drink, Do all the wicked of the earth,

⁹And I — I declare [it] to the age, I sing praise to the God of Jacob.

¹⁰And all horns of the wicked I cut off, Exalted are the horns of the righteous!
