Psalm 75
For the director of music. A psalm of Asaph. A song to the tune of “Do Not Destroy.”
1God, we praise you.
We praise you because you are near to us.
People talk about the wonderful things you have done.
2You say, “I choose the appointed time to judge people.
And I judge them fairly.
3When the earth and all its people tremble,
I keep everything from falling to pieces.
4To the proud I say, ‘Don’t brag anymore.’
To sinners I say, ‘Don’t show off your power.
5Don’t show it off against me.
Don’t talk back to me.’ ”
6No one from east or west or north or south
can judge themselves.
7God is the one who judges.
He says to one person, “You are guilty.”
To another he says, “You are not guilty.”
8In the hand of the Lord is a cup.
It is full of wine mixed with spices.
It is the wine of his anger.
He pours it out. All the evil people on earth
drink it down to the very last drop.
9I will speak about this forever.
I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.
10God says, “I will destroy the power of all sinful people.
But I will make godly people more powerful.”

Al director musical. Sígase la tonada de «No destruyas». Salmo de Asaf. Cántico.
1Te damos gracias, oh Dios,
te damos gracias e invocamos75:1 e invocamos (LXX y Siríaca); y cercano está (TM). tu Nombre;
¡todos hablan de tus obras portentosas!
2Tú dices: «Cuando yo lo decida,
juzgaré con equidad.
3Cuando se estremece la tierra con todos sus habitantes,
soy yo quien afirma sus columnas». Selah
4«No sean altaneros», digo a los altivos;
«No sean soberbios», ordeno a los malvados;
5«No hagan gala de soberbia contra el cielo
ni hablen con aires de suficiencia».
6La exaltación no viene del oriente
ni del occidente ni del desierto,
7sino que es Dios el que juzga:
a unos humilla y a otros exalta.
8En la mano del Señor hay una copa
de espumante vino mezclado con especias;
cuando él lo derrame, todos los malvados de la tierra
habrán de beberlo hasta la última gota.
9Yo hablaré de esto siempre;
cantaré salmos al Dios de Jacob.
10Aniquilaré la altivez de todos los malvados
y exaltaré el poder de los justos.
