Psalms 75

Also in: KJV · CNV · ESV · NKJV · RCUV · CCBT

1We praise you, God, we praise you, for your Name is near; people tell of your wonderful deeds. 2You say, “I choose the appointed time; it is I who judge with equity. 3When the earth and all its people quake, it is I who hold its pillars firm. 4To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns. 5Do not lift your horns against heaven; do not speak so defiantly.’ ” 6No one from the east or the west or from the desert can exalt themselves. 7It is God who judges: He brings one down, he exalts another. 8In the hand of the Lord is a cup full of foaming wine mixed with spices; he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth drink it down to its very dregs. 9As for me, I will declare this forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob, 10who says, “I will cut off the horns of all the wicked, but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”
