Psalm 75 - International Standard Version (ISV)

You are here: Home International Standard Version (ISV) Psalm 75

To the Director: To the tune of[a] “Do not Destroy!”

A psalm of Asaph. A song.

Praise to God for Justice

75 We praise you, God!
We praise you[b]—your presence[c] draws near—
as we declare your wonderful deeds.

2 “At the time that I choose
I will judge the righteous.[d]
3 While the earth and all its inhabitants melt away,
it is I who keep its pillars firm.”
Interlude

4 I will say to the proud, “Don’t brag,”
and to the wicked,
“Don’t vaunt your strength.[e]
5 Don’t use your strength to fight heaven[f]
or speak from stubborn arrogance.”[g]
6 For exaltation comes not from the east,
the west, or the wilderness,
7 since God is the judge.
This one he will debase or that one he will exalt.
8 For 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.

9 But as for me, I will declare forever,
singing praise to the God of Jacob.
10 I will cut down the strength[h] of the wicked,
but the strength[i] of the righteous will be lifted up.
