Psalms 75

God the Judge

For the director of music. To the tune of "Do Not Destroy." A psalm of Asaph. A song.

1 God, we thank you;
    we thank you because you are near.
    We tell about the miracles you do.

2 You say, "I set the time for trial,
    and I will judge fairly.
3 The earth with all its people may shake,
    but I am the one who holds it steady. Selah
4 I say to those who are proud, ‘Don't brag,'
    and to the wicked, ‘Don't show your power.
5 Don't try to use your power against heaven.
    Don't be stubborn.'"

6 No one from the east or the west
    or the desert can judge you.
7 God is the judge;
    he judges one person as guilty and another as innocent.
8 The Lord holds a cup of anger in his hand;
    it is full of wine mixed with spices.
He pours it out even to the last drop,
    and the wicked drink it all.

9 I will tell about this forever;
    I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.
10 He will take all power away from the wicked,
    but the power of good people will grow.
