Psalm 75
HCSB Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
Holman Christian Standard BibleInternational Standard Version
1For the choir director: "Do Not Destroy." A psalm of Asaph. A song. We give thanks to You, God; we give thanks to You, for Your name is near. People tell about Your wonderful works." 1We praise you, God! We praise you —your presence draws near— as we declare your wonderful deeds.
2When I choose a time, I will judge fairly. 2"At the time that I choose I will judge the righteous.
3When the earth and all its inhabitants shake, I am the One who steadies its pillars. Selah 3While the earth and all its inhabitants melt away, it is I who keep its pillars firm." Interlude
4I say to the boastful, 'Do not boast,' and to the wicked, 'Do not lift up your horn. 4I will say to the proud, "Don't brag," and to the wicked, "Don't vaunt your strength.
5Do not lift up your horn against heaven or speak arrogantly.'" 5Don't use your strength to fight heaven or speak from stubborn arrogance."
6Exaltation does not come from the east, the west, or the desert, 6For exaltation comes not from the east, the west, or the wilderness,
7for God is the Judge: He brings down one and exalts another. 7since God is the judge. This one he will debase or that one he will exalt.
8For there is a cup in the LORD's hand, full of wine blended with spices, and He pours from it. All the wicked of the earth will drink, draining it to the dregs. 8For there is a cup in the hand of the LORD, foaming with well-mixed wine that he will pour out, leaving only the dregs, from which all the wicked of the earth will drink.
9As for me, I will tell about Him forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob." 9But as for me, I will declare forever, singing praise to the God of Jacob.
10I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up." 10I will cut down the strength of the wicked, but the strength of the righteous will be lifted up.
