Tehillim 75

1(For the one directing. Set to Do Not Destroy. Mizmor Asaph. Shir)

2Hodinu l'cha Elohim (Unto thee, Elohim, do we give thanks).

Hodinu; that Thy Shem is near

Thy wondrous works declare.

3I shall seize the mo'ed (appointed time),1

I will judge uprightly.

4Eretz and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolving;

I, even I, hold up the ammudim (pillars) of it.

Selah

5I said unto the hollelim (arrogant), Deal not boastfully;

and to the resha'im, Lift not up the keren;

6Lift not up your keren on high;

speak not with a stiff neck.

7For promotion cometh lo (not) from the east,

nor from the west, nor from the desert.

8But Elohim is the Shofet;

He bringeth down one, and setteth up another.

9For in the yad Hashem there is a kos,

and the yayin is foaming; full of mixture;

and He poureth out of the same;

but the dregs thereof, all rishei aretz (wicked of the earth)

shall drain them down, and drink them.2

10But I will proclaim l'olam;

I will sing zemirot to Elohei Ya'akov.

11All the karnayim of the resha'im also will I cut off;

but the karnayim of the tzaddik shall be exalted.3
