Chapter 75

God Will Judge with Equity

TO THE CHOIRMASTER: ACCORDING TO DO NOT DESTROY.  A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG.

We give thanks to you, O God; we give thanks, for your name is near. We recount your wondrous deeds.

“ At the set time that I appoint I will judge with equity.

3 When the earth totters, and all its inhabitants, it is I who keep steady its pillars. Selah

I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast’, and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn;

5 do not lift up your horn on high, or speak with haughty neck.’”

6 For not from the east or from the west and not from the wilderness comes  lifting up,

7 but it is God who executes judgement, putting down one and lifting up another.

8 For 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.

9 But I will declare it for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.
