To the chief Musician, Altaschith, A Psalm [or] Song of Asaph.

1.Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.^75-1^75-2

2.When I shall receive^75-3 the congregation I will judge uprightly.

3.The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.

4.I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

5.Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.

6.For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south^75-4.

7.But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

8.For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.

9.But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10.All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

Psalm 75
