Psalm 75

^{Tools
1} We praise you, God! We praise you your presence draws near as we declare your wonderful deeds.

^{Tools
2} "At the time that I choose I will judge the righteous. ^{Tools
3} While the earth and all its inhabitants melt away, it is I who keep its pillars firm." Interlude ^{Tools
4} I will say to the proud, "Don't brag," and to the wicked, "Don't vaunt your strength. ^{Tools
5} Don't use your strength to fight heaven or speak from stubborn arrogance."

^{Tools
6} For exaltation comes not from the east, the west, or the wilderness, ^{Tools
7} since God is the judge. This one he will debase or that one he will exalt. ^{Tools
8} For there is a cup in the hand of the LORD, foaming with well-mixed wine that he will pour out, leaving only the dregs, from which all the wicked of the earth will drink.

^{Tools
9} But as for me, I will declare forever, singing praise to the God of Jacob.

^{Tools
10} I will cut down the strength of the wicked, but the strength of the righteous will be lifted up. To the Director: With stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song.
