升降黜陟权操神

75 亚萨的诗歌,交于伶长。调用休要毁坏。

神啊,我们称谢你,我们称谢你!因为你的名相近,人都述说你奇妙的作为。
“我到了所定的日期,必按正直施行审判。
地和其上的居民都消化了,我曾立了地的柱子。(细拉)
我对狂傲人说:‘不要行事狂傲!’对凶恶人说:‘不要举角,
不要把你们的角高举,不要挺着颈项说话!’”
因为高举非从东,非从西,也非从南而来;
唯有神断定,他使这人降卑,使那人升高。
耶和华手里有杯,其中的酒起沫,杯内满了掺杂的酒。他倒出来,地上的恶人必都喝这酒的渣滓,而且喝尽。
但我要宣扬,直到永远,我要歌颂雅各的神。
10 “恶人一切的角,我要砍断;唯有义人的角,必被高举。”

上帝是审判者

亚萨的诗,交给乐长,调用“休要毁坏”。

75 上帝啊,
我们称谢你,我们称谢你,
因为你与我们同在。
人们都述说你奇妙的作为。
你说:“我已定好时间,
我必秉公审判。
大地震动,世人战抖的时候,
是我使地的根基稳固。(细拉)
我警告狂妄人不要再狂傲,
告诫恶人不要再张狂。
不要再狂妄自大,
不要说话傲气冲天。”
人的尊贵不是来自东方,
不是来自西方,
也不是来自旷野。
决定人尊贵的是上帝:
祂擢升这个,贬抑那个。
耶和华手中的杯里盛满泛着泡沫、精工调制的怒酒。
祂倒出怒酒,让世上的恶人喝得一滴不剩。
我要永远宣扬祂的作为,
我要颂赞雅各的上帝。
10 上帝必铲除恶人的势力,
使义人充满力量。

Psalm 75

The God of History

Heading
For the choir director. “Do Not Destroy.”[a] A psalm by Asaph. A song.

Opening Praise

We give thanks to you, O God, we give thanks.
Your wonderful deeds reveal that your name is near.

God’s Declaration

Yes, I choose the appointed time.
I am the one who judges rightly.
The earth and all its inhabitants are shaking.
I am the one who holds its pillars firm. Interlude
I say to the boasters, “Do not boast,”
and to the wicked, “Do not raise a horn.[b]
Do not raise your horns to the heights.
Do not speak insolently with an outstretched neck.”

His People’s Response

Indeed, power to promote someone does not come
    from the east or from the west or from the wilderness.
No, it is God who makes the decision.
He brings down one. He raises up another.
Indeed, a cup is in the hand of the Lord.
The wine foams. It is fully mixed.
He pours this out.
Yes, they drain its dregs.
All the wicked of the earth drink.

Closing Praise

As for me, I will proclaim this forever.
I will make music for the God of Jacob.
10 I will cut off all the horns of the wicked.
The horns of the righteous will be lifted up.
