诗篇 75
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
神必使惡人降卑義人高升
歌一首，亞薩的詩，交給詩班長，調用“休要毀壞”。
75 神啊！我們稱謝你，我們稱謝你，
因為你（“你”原文作“你的名”）接近人，
人都述說你奇妙的作為。
2 你說：“我選定了日期，
我要按公正施行審判。
3 地和地上的居民都因懼怕而融化，
我卻使大地的柱子堅立。（細拉）
4 我對狂傲的人說：‘不要行事狂傲’；
對邪惡的人說：‘不要舉角，
5 不要高舉你們的角，
不要挺著傲慢的頸項說話。’”
6 高升不是從東面來，不是從西面來，
也不是曠野來，
7 而是由 神來決定；
他使這人降卑，使那人升高。
8 原來耶和華的手裡有杯，
裝滿了起沫和混雜各種香料的酒；
他把酒從杯裡倒出來，地上所有的惡人都必定要喝，
甚至連酒的渣滓都要喝盡。
9 至於我，我要永遠傳揚，
我要向雅各的 神歌唱。
10 所有惡人的角，我都要砍斷，
只有義人的角必被高舉。
Psalm 75
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Psalm 75[a]
God the Judge of the World
1 For the leader. Do not destroy! A psalm of Asaph; a song.
I
2 We thank you, God, we give thanks;
we call upon your name,
we declare your wonderful deeds.
[You said:][b]
3 “I will choose the time;
I will judge fairly.
4 Though the earth and all its inhabitants quake,
I make steady its pillars.”(A)
Selah
II
5 So I say to the boastful: “Do not boast!”(B)
to the wicked: “Do not raise your horns![c]
6 Do not raise your horns against heaven!
Do not speak with a stiff neck!”(C)
7 For judgment comes not from east or from west,
not from the wilderness or the mountains,(D)
8 But from God who decides,
who brings some low and raises others high.(E)
9 Yes, a cup[d] is in the Lord’s hand,
foaming wine, fully spiced.
When God pours it out,
they will drain it even to the dregs;
all the wicked of the earth will drink.(F)
10 But I will rejoice forever;
I will sing praise to the God of Jacob,
11 (G)[Who has said:]
“I will cut off all the horns of the wicked,
but the horns of the righteous will be exalted.”
Footnotes
- Psalm 75 The psalmist gives thanks and rejoices (Ps 75:2, 10) for the direct intervention of God, which is promised in two oracles (Ps 75:3–4, 11). Expecting that divine intervention, the psalmist warns evildoers to repent (Ps 75:5–9).
- 75:2 You said: supplied for clarity here and in Ps 75:11. The translation assumes in both places that the psalmist is citing an oracle of God.
- 75:5 Do not raise your horns!: the horn is the symbol of strength; to raise one’s horn is to exalt one’s own power as Ps 75:5 explains.
- 75:9 A cup: “the cup of God’s wrath” is the punishment inflicted on the wicked, cf. Is 51:17; Jer 25:15–29; 49:12; Eze 23:31–33. Spiced: lit., “a mixed drink”; spices or drugs were added to wine, cf. Prv 9:2, 5.
Psalm 75
King James Version
75 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.
