Tehillim (Psa) 75

1For the leader. Set to “Do Not Destroy!” A psalm of Asaf. A song:

2We give thanks to you, God, we give thanks;

your name is near, people tell of your wonders.

3“At the time of my own choice,

I will dispense justice fairly.

4When the earth quakes, with all living on it,

it is I who hold its support-pillars firm.” (Selah)

5To the boastful I say, “Do not boast!”

and to the wicked, “Don’t flaunt your strength!

6Don’t flaunt your strength so proudly;

don’t speak arrogantly, with your nose in the air!

7For you will not be raised to power

by those in the east, the west or the desert;

8since God is the judge; and it is he

who puts down one and lifts up another.

9In 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.”

10But I will always speak out,

singing praises to the God of Ya‘akov.

11I will break down the strength of the wicked,

but the strength of the righteous will be raised up.
