Bible Older Testament Psalms chapter 75 of 150 (10 verses.)Psalms 75
| Asaph Celebrates YAH's Justice And Power | 1 We [believers] thrust our hands [into the air to thank you], Elohim. Thank you for bringing your authority into our [lives]. We're telling [everyone about] your marvelous [miracles]. Asaph wrote this instrumental-vocal song for a skilled music director to arrange and conduct. It's to the tune of, or in the style of an earlier ancient classic song called βDo Not Destroyβ.
This psalm has never before been translated coherently into English.2 [Great] judge; [great] leveler, seize the moment! 3 The earth and all its inhabitants totter, [lost in space]. So hold [our gravity] pillars [in place]. Selah {Dramatic-Break}. 4 Braggarts, boast no more! Thugs, put down your [goring] horns. 5 Stop sticking your tusks up to [challenge] the heavens. Shut your [sassy] mouth [s]. [Relax] your stiff neck [s]. 6 [No one on this material plane], east, west, [north] nor south, can raise [you to the] mountain [of power], π.7 Elohim is the [universe's only] judge, π. He abases one [being], and exalts another. 8 The hand of Yahweh holds a cup, π. The wine [swirls] red, undiluted, [full-strength]. [YAH] pours it out [over the earth]. All the wicked [people] of the world must drink it, drain it to the dregs.9 [So] I'll never stop declaring [YAH's supremacy]. I'll keep striking [guitar strings, singing praise] to [ancient] Jacob's Elohim {Sovereign}. 10 I'll hack down the power-horns of wicked [criminals], while [YAH] raises high the trumpets of all right-walkers. |
