Psalms 75
75
A Cup in God’s Hand
To the Pure and Shining One
Asaph’s poetic song To the tune of “Do Not Destroy”
1God, our hearts spill over with praise to you!
We overflow with thanks, for your name is the “Near One.”
All we want to talk about is your wonderful works!
And we hear your reply:
2“When the time is ripe I will arise,
and I will judge the world with perfect righteousness.
3Though I have set the earth firmly on its pillars,
I will shake it until it totters, and everyone’s hearts will tremble.”
Pause in his presence
4God warns the proud, “Stop your arrogant boasting!”
And he warns the wicked,
“Don’t think for a moment you can resist me!
5Why would you speak with such stubborn pride?
Don’t you dare raise your fist against me!”
6-7This I know:
the favor that brings promotion and power
doesn’t come from anywhere on earth,
for no one exalts a person but God, the true judge of all.
He alone determines where favor rests.
He anoints one for greatness
and brings another down to his knees.
8A foaming cup filled with judgment mixed with fury
is in the hands of the Lord Yahweh,
full to the brim and ready to run over.
He filled it up for the wicked, and they will drink it
down to the very last drop!
9But I will proclaim the victory of the God of Jacob.
My melodies of praise will make him known.
10My praises will break the powers of wickedness,
while the righteous will be promoted and become powerful!

1 Unto the end. With Praises. A Psalm of Asaph. A Canticle to the Assyrians.
2 In Judea, God is known. In Israel, his name is great.
3 And his place has been formed with peace. And his dwelling place is in Zion.
4 In that place, he has broken the powers of the bows, the shield, the sword, and the battle.
5 You illuminate wondrously from the mountains of eternity.
6 All the foolish of heart have been disturbed. They have slept their sleep, and all the men of riches have found nothing in their hands.
7 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, those who were mounted on horseback have fallen asleep.
8 You are terrible, and so, who can withstand you? From thence is your wrath.
9 You have caused judgment to be heard from heaven. The earth trembled and was quieted,
10 when God rose up in judgment in order to bring salvation to all the meek of the earth.
11 For the thinking of man will confess to you, and the legacy of his thinking will keep a feast day to you.
12 Make vows and pay them to the Lord, your God. All you who surround him bring gifts: to him who is terrible,
13 even to him who takes away the spirit of leaders, to him who is terrible with the kings of the earth.
