Psalms 75 [Commentary]
|
1. |
For the choir director; set to Al-tashheth. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. 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.
|
10. |
And all the horns of the wicked He will cut off, But the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.
