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!

1We shall give thanks to You, O Elohim, we shall give thanks! And Your Name is near! Your wonders shall be declared!
2“When I seize the appointed time, It is I who judge in uprightness.
3The earth and all its inhabitants are melted; It is I who set its columns firm. Selah.”
4“I said to the boasters, ‘Do not boast,’ And to the wrong, ‘Do not lift up the horn.
5“Do not lift up your horn on high (You speak with a stiff neck).’ ”
6For exaltations are neither from the east, Nor from the west nor from the wilderness.
7But Elohim is the Judge – He puts down one, And exalts another.
8For a cup is in the hand of יהוה, And the wine shall foam; It is filled with a mixture, And He pours it out. All the wrong of the earth drink, Draining it to the dregs.
9But I, I declare forever, I sing praises to the Elohim of Ya‛aqoḇ.
10And all the horns of the wrong I cut off; The horns of the righteous are lifted up.
