75

For the director of music. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm of Asaph. A song.
  1We praise you, God,
   we praise you, for your Name is near;
   people tell of your wonderful deeds.

  2You say, “I choose the appointed time;
   it is I who judge with equity.
  3When the earth and all its people quake,
   it is I who hold its pillars firm.
  4To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’
   and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.
  5Do not lift your horns against heaven;
   do not speak so defiantly.’ ”

  6No one from the east or the west
   or from the desert can exalt themselves.
  7It is God who judges:
   He brings one down, he exalts another.
  8In the hand of the Lord is a cup
   full of foaming wine mixed with spices;
  he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth
   drink it down to its very dregs.

  9As for me, I will declare this forever;
   I will sing praise to the God of Jacob,
  10who says, “I will cut off the horns of all the wicked,
   but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”
