The Psalm
Psalms. Chapter 75. For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Psalm by Asaph. A song. We give thanks to you, God. We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works. When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly. The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. Selah. I said to the arrogant, “Don’t boast!” I said to the wicked, “Don’t lift up the horn. Don’t lift up your horn on high. Don’t speak with a stiff neck.” For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation. But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another. For in the LORD’s hand there is a cup, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours it out. Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs. But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob. I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.

For the Chief Musician
To the tune of Do Not Destroy
A Psalm by Asaph
A song
We give thanks to you, God
We give thanks, for your Name is near
Men tell about your wondrous works
When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly
The earth and all its inhabitants quake
I firmly hold its pillars
Selah
I said to the arrogant, Dont boast
I said to the wicked, Dont lift up the horn
Dont lift up your horn on high
Dont speak with a stiff neck
For neither from the east
Nor from the west
Nor
Yet from the south, comes exaltation
But God is the judge
He puts down one, and lifts up another
For in the LORDs hand there is a cup, full of foaming wine mixed with spices
He pours it out
Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs
But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob
I will cut off all the horns of the wicked
But the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up
