75:1 For the leader. Set to “Do Not Destroy!” A psalm of Asaf. A song:
75:2 We give thanks to you, God, we give thanks; your name is near, people tell of your wonders.
75:3 “At the time of my own choice, I will dispense justice fairly.
75:4 When the earth quakes, with all living on it, it is I who hold its support-pillars firm.” (Selah)
75:5 To the boastful I say, “Do not boast!” and to the wicked, “Don’t flaunt your strength!
75:6 Don’t flaunt your strength so proudly; don’t speak arrogantly, with your nose in the air!
75:7 For you will not be raised to power by those in the east, the west or the desert;
75:8 since God is the judge; and it is he who puts down one and lifts up another.
75:9 In Adonai’s hand there is a cup of wine, foaming, richly spiced; when he pours it out, all the wicked of the earth will drain it, drinking it to the dregs.”
75:10 But I will always speak out, singing praises to the God of Ya‘akov.
75:11 I will break down the strength of the wicked, but the strength of the righteous will be raised up.
