Psalm 75

New International Version NIV

1 We praise you, God, we praise you, for your Name is near; people tell of your wonderful deeds.

2 You say, “I choose the appointed time; it is I who judge with equity.

3 When the earth and all its people quake, it is I who hold its pillars firm.

4 To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.

5 Do not lift your horns against heaven; do not speak so defiantly.’ ”

6 No one from the east or the west or from the desert can exalt themselves.

7 It is God who judges: He brings one down, he exalts another.

8 In 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.

9 As for me, I will declare this forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob,

10 who says, “I will cut off the horns of all the wicked, but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”

The Message Bible MSG

1 We thank you, God, we thank you - your Name is our favorite word; your mighty works are all we talk about.

2 You say, "I'm calling this meeting to order, I'm ready to set things right.

3 When the earth goes topsy-turvy And nobody knows which end is up, I nail it all down, I put everything in place again.

4 I say to the smart alecks, 'That's enough,' to the bullies, 'Not so fast.'"

5 Don't raise your fist against High God. Don't raise your voice against Rock of Ages.

6 He's the One from east to west; from desert to mountains, he's the One.

7 God rules: he brings this one down to his knees, pulls that one up on her feet.

8 God has a cup in his hand, a bowl of wine, full to the brim. He draws from it and pours; it's drained to the dregs. Earth's wicked ones drink it all, drink it down to the last bitter drop!

9 And I'm telling the story of God Eternal, singing the praises of Jacob's God.

10 The fists of the wicked are bloody stumps, The arms of the righteous are lofty green branches.
