2 We will confess to you, O God. We will confess, and we will call upon your name. We will describe your wonders.
75:1 Al Músico principal: sobre No destruyas: Salmo de Asaph: Cántico. ALABARÉMOSTE, oh Dios, alabaremos; que cercano está tu nombre: cuenten tus maravillas.
75:1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Psalm by Asaph. A song. We give thanks to you, God. We give thanks, for your Name is near. Men tell about your wondrous works.
3 While I have time, I will judge justices.
75:2 Cuando yo tuviere tiempo, yo juzgaré rectamente.
75:2 When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly.

75:3 Arruinábase la tierra y sus moradores: yo sostengo sus columnas. (Selah.)
75:3 The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. Selah.
5 I said to the iniquitous: “Do not act unjustly,” and to the offenders: “Do not exalt the horn.”
75:4 Dije á los insensatos: No os infatuéis; y á los impíos: No levantéis el cuerno:
75:4 I said to the arrogant, “Don’t boast!” I said to the wicked, “Don’t lift up the horn.
6 Do not exalt your horn on high. Do not speak iniquity against God.
75:5 No levantéis en alto vuestro cuerno; no habléis con cerviz erguida.
75:5 Don’t lift up your horn on high. Don’t speak with a stiff neck.”
7 For it is neither from the east, nor from the west, nor before the desert mountains.
75:6 Porque ni de oriente, ni de occidente, ni del desierto [viene] el ensalzamiento.
75:6 For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.
8 For God is judge. This one he humbles and that one he exalts.
75:7 Mas Dios es el juez: á éste abate, y á aquél ensalza.
75:7 But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another.
9 For, in the hand of the Lord, there is a cup of undiluted wine, full of consternation. And he has tipped it from here to there. So, truly, its dregs have not been emptied. All the sinners of the earth will drink.
75:8 Porque el cáliz está en la mano de Jehová, y el vino es tinto, lleno de mistura; y él derrama del mismo: ciertamente sus heces chuparán y beberán todos los impíos de la tierra.
75:8 For in Yahweh’s hand there is a cup, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours it out. Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs.
