75:1 We give thanks to you, O God! We give thanks!
You reveal your presence,¹
people tell about your amazing deeds,
75:2 God says,²
“At the appointed times,³
I judge⁴ fairly.
75:3 When the earth and all its inhabitants dissolve in fear,⁵
I make its pillars secure.”⁶ (Selah)
75:4⁷ I say to the proud, “Do not be proud,”
and to the wicked, “Do not be so confident of victory!⁸
75:5 Do not be so certain you have won!⁹
Do not speak with your head held so high!¹⁰
75:6 For victory does not come from the east or west,
or from the wilderness.¹¹
75:7 For God is the judge!¹²
He brings one down and exalts another.¹³
75:8 For the LORD holds in his hand a cup full
of foaming wine mixed with spices,¹⁴
and pours it out.¹⁵
Surely all the wicked of the earth
will slurp it up and drink it to its very last drop.”¹⁶
75:9 As for me, I will continually tell what you have done,¹⁷
I will sing praises to the God of Jacob!
75:10 God says,¹⁸
“I will bring down all the power of the wicked,
the godly will be victorious.”¹⁹
