Psalm 75
1 Unto
thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give
thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works
declare.
2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge
uprightly.
3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are
dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to
the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a
stiff neck.
6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor
from the west, nor from the south.
7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and
setteth up another.
8 For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and
the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he
poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all
the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and
drink them.
9 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises
to the God of Jacob.
10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off;
but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

- The Book of David
The Book of Psalms which contains Psalm 75 is also referred to
as the Book of David. David reigned over Judah and Israel
was the second king of the united Kingdom of Israel. King
David is credited with the authorship of many of the Psalms
and the collection is therefore often referred to as the
Book of David. |
