Psalms 75
The psalmist expresses gratitude to God and vows to proclaim His wonders. God judges the wicked and humbles the proud, while exalting the righteous. The wicked will be punished, forced to drink from a cup of God's wrath, but the psalmist will continue to praise God and announce His justice. The horns of the wicked will be broken, and those of the just will be exalted.
Unto the end. May you not be corrupted. A Canticle Psalm of Asaph. We will confess to you, O God. We will confess, and we will call upon your name. We will describe your wondersWhile I have time, I will judge justicesThe earth has been dissolved, with all who dwell in it. I have confirmed its pillarsI said to the iniquitous: "Do not act unjustly," and to the offenders: "Do not exalt the horn.Do not exalt your horn on high. Do not speak iniquity against GodFor it is neither from the east, nor from the west, nor before the desert mountainsFor God is judge. This one he humbles and that one he exaltsFor, in the hand of the Lord, there is a cup of undiluted wine, full of consternation. And he has tipped it from here to there. So, truly, its dregs have not been emptied. All the sinners of the earth will drinkBut I will announce it in every age. I will sing to the God of JacobAnd I will break all the horns of sinners. And the horns of the just will be exalted
