Psalm 75
Maori Bible
75 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Aratakiti. He himene, he waiata na Ahapa. Ka whakawhetai tonu matou ki a koe, e te Atua; ka whakawhetai tonu matou, kei te tata mai hoki tou ingoa: e korerotia ana e te tangata au mahi whakamiharo.
2 Ka kitea e ahau te wa e rite ana, ka tika taku whakawa.
3 Kuteretere noa iho te whenua me ona tangata katoa; naku i whakatu ona pou. (Hera.
4 I mea ahau ki te hunga whakakake, Kati ra te whakakake; ki te hunga hara ano, Kaua e whakaarahia te haona.
5 Kaua to koutou haona e whakaarahia ki runga: kati te whakamaro i te kaki ina korero.
6 No te mea kahore he aranga i te rawhiti, kahore i te hauauru, kahore hoki i te tonga.
7 Ko te Atua ia te kaiwhakawa; ko tenei e whakaititia iho ana e ia, ko tera e whakaarahia ake ana.
8 Kei te ringa hoki o Ihowa he kapu, pahuka tonu te waina; ki tonu, whakananu rawa, hei ringihanga mana: ko nga nganga ia, ma te hunga kino katoa o te whenua e tatau, e inu.
9 Ko ahau ia, ka kauwhau tonu: ka himene ki te Atua o Hakopa.
10 A ka kotia e ahau nga haona katoa o te hunga kino: ka whakaarahia ake ia nga haona o te tangata tika.
Psalm 75
New International Version
Psalm 75[a]
For the director of music. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm of Asaph. A song.
1 We praise you, God,
we praise you, for your Name is near;(A)
people tell of your wonderful deeds.(B)
2 You say, “I choose the appointed time;(C)
it is I who judge with equity.(D)
3 When the earth and all its people quake,(E)
it is I who hold its pillars(F) firm.[b]
4 To the arrogant(G) I say, ‘Boast no more,’(H)
and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.[c](I)
5 Do not lift your horns against heaven;
do not speak so defiantly.(J)’”
6 No one from the east or the west
or from the desert can exalt themselves.
7 It is God who judges:(K)
He brings one down, he exalts another.(L)
8 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)

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.
