Psalms 75:1-7 ▼

1 For the choir director: “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm of Asaph. ”8224; A song. We give thanks to you, God; we give thanks to you, for your name is near. People tell about your wondrous works.

2 “When I choose a time, I will judge fairly.

3 When the earth and all its inhabitants shake, I am the one who steadies its pillars. Selah

4 I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn.

5 Do not lift up your horn against heaven or speak arrogantly.’ ”

6 Exaltation does not come from the east, the west, or the desert,

7 for God is the Judge: He brings down one and exalts another.
