Psalm 75

God Will Judge with Equity

To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

¹We give thanks to you, O God;

we give thanks, for your name is near.

We recount your wondrous deeds.

²“At the set time that I appoint

I will judge with equity.

³When the earth totters, and all its inhabitants,

it is I who keep steady its pillars. Selah

⁴I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’

and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn;

⁵do not lift up your horn on high,

or speak with haughty neck.’”

⁶For not from the east or from the west

and not from the wilderness comes lifting up,

⁷but it is God who executes judgment,

putting down one and lifting up another.

⁸For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup

with foaming wine, well mixed,

and he pours out from it,

and all the wicked of the earth

shall drain it down to the dregs.

⁹But I will declare it forever;

I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

¹⁰All the horns of the wicked I will cut off,

but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
