Diyos ang Siyang Huhusga

Isang Awit na katha ni Asaf upang awitin ng Punong Mang-aawit.

75 Salamat, O Diyos, maraming salamat,
    sa iyong pangalan kami'y tumatawag,
    upang gunitain sa lahat ng oras ang mga gawa mo na kahanga-hanga.

Wika ng Panginoon, “Sa takdang panahon,
    walang pagtatanging ako ay hahatol.
Itong mundong ito'y kahit na mayanig,
    maubos ang tao dito sa daigdig,
    ang saligan nito'y aking ititindig.” (Selah)[a]
“Sabi ko sa hambog sila ay mag-ingat, at ang masasama'y huwag magpasikat.
    Ang pagmamalaki'y dapat na iwasan, kung magsasalita'y gawing malumanay.”

Hindi sa silangan, hindi sa kanluran,
    hindi rin sa timog o sa hilaga man magmumula, hatol na inaasahan.
Tanging Diyos lamang ang siyang hahatol,
    sa mapapahamak o sa magtatagumpay.
Si Yahweh na Diyos ay may kopang hawak,
    sariwa't matapang yaong lamang alak;
ipauubaya niyang ito'y tunggain
    ng taong masama, hanggang sa ubusin.

Subalit ako ay laging magagalak;
    ang Diyos ni Jacob, aking itataas.
10 Lakas ng masama'y papatiding lahat,
    sa mga matuwid nama'y itataas!

God judges people fairly

75 God, we thank you!
    Yes, we thank you!
You are very near to us.
People everywhere say what great things you have done.
God says, ‘I choose the time when I will judge people,
    and I will be a fair judge.
When the earth shakes and the people in it are afraid,
    I will keep its foundations strong.’
Selah.
I say to people who are proud,
    ‘Do not be proud.’
I say to wicked people,
    ‘Do not boast about your power.
Do not boast against God.
    Do not speak with such proud words.’
Who has the power to judge people?
Nobody from the east, or from the west,
    or from the desert can be judge.
God is the one who judges people.
He decides who to bring down
    and who to lift up.[a]
The Lord holds a cup of punishment in his hand.[b]
    It is full of wine, with spices in it.
The Lord pours out his anger from this cup.
All the wicked people in the world will have to drink it.
    They will drink all of it, so that none remains.

But as for me, I will always thank you, God.
I will sing to praise you,
    the God of Jacob.
10 You say, ‘I will destroy the power of wicked people.
    I will give strength to my righteous people.’

  1. 75:7 God says that one person is wrong (he brings them down) and another person is right (he lifts them up).
  2. 75:8 A cup with strong wine in it is a picture of God's anger and punishment.

Psalm 75[a]

For the director of music. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm of Asaph. A song.

We praise you, God,
    we praise you, for your Name is near;(A)
    people tell of your wonderful deeds.(B)

You say, “I choose the appointed time;(C)
    it is I who judge with equity.(D)
When the earth and all its people quake,(E)
    it is I who hold its pillars(F) firm.[b]
To the arrogant(G) I say, ‘Boast no more,’(H)
    and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.[c](I)
Do not lift your horns against heaven;
    do not speak so defiantly.(J)’”

No one from the east or the west
    or from the desert can exalt themselves.
It is God who judges:(K)
    He brings one down, he exalts another.(L)
In the hand of the Lord is a cup
    full of foaming wine mixed(M) with spices;
he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth
    drink it down to its very dregs.(N)

As for me, I will declare(O) this forever;
    I will sing(P) praise to the God of Jacob,(Q)
10 who says, “I will cut off the horns of all the wicked,
    but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”(R)
