Psalms 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.”

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 God, we give thanks to you. We give thanks because your Name is near. People talk about the wonderful things you have done.

2 You say, "I choose the appointed time to judge people. And I judge them fairly.

3 When the earth and all of its people tremble, I keep everything from falling to pieces. "Selah"

4 To the proud I say, 'Don't brag anymore.' To sinners I say, 'Don't show off your power.

5 Don't show it off against me. Don't speak with your noses in the air.' "

6 No one from east or west or north or south can act as judge.

7 God is the One who judges. He says to one person, "You are guilty." To another he says, "You are not guilty."

8 In the hand of the LORD is a cup. It is full of wine mixed with spices. It is the wine of his anger. He pours it out. All of the evil people on earth drink it down to the very last drop.

9 I will speak about this forever. I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.

10 God will destroy the power of all sinful people. But he will make godly people more powerful.
