1 Εἰς τὸ τέλος, μὴ διαφθείρῃς, ψαλμὸς ᾠδῆς τῷ Ἀσάφ.
·
2 Ἐξομολογησόμεθα σοι ὁ Θεὸς, ἐξομολογησόμεθα, καὶ ἐπικαλεσόμεθα τὸ ὄνομά σου· διηγήσομαι πάντα τὰ θαυμάσιά σου.
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 Ὅταν λάβω καιρὸν, ἐγὼ εὐθύτητας κρινῶ.
75:2 When I choose the appointed time, I will judge blamelessly.
4 Ἐτάκη ἡ γῆ, καὶ πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες αὐτὴν, ἐγὼ ἐστερέωσα τοὺς στύλους αὐτῆς· διάψαλμα.
75:3 The earth and all its inhabitants quake. I firmly hold its pillars. Selah.
5 Εἶπα τοῖς παρανομοῦσι, μὴ παρανομεῖν, καὶ τοῖς ἁμαρτάνουσι, μὴ ὑψοῦτε κέρας.
75:4 I said to the arrogant, “Don’t boast!” I said to the wicked, “Don’t lift up the horn.
6 Μὴ ἐπαίρετε εἰς ὕψος τὸ κέρας ὑμῶν, μὴ λαλεῖτε κατὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἀδικίαν.
75:5 Don’t lift up your horn on high. Don’t speak with a stiff neck.”
7 Ὅτι οὔτε ἀπὸ ἐξόδων, οὔτε ἀπὸ δυσμῶν, οὔτε ἀπὸ ἐρήμων ὀρέων,
75:6 For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor yet from the south, comes exaltation.
8 ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς κριτής ἐστι· τοῦτον ταπεινοῖ, καὶ τοῦτον ὑψοῖ.
75:7 But God is the judge. He puts down one, and lifts up another.
9 Ὅτι ποτήριον ἐν χειρὶ Κυρίου, οἴνου ἀκράτου πλῆρες κεράσματος· καὶ ἔκλινεν ἐκ τούτου εἰς τοῦτο, πλὴν ὁ τρυγίας αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐξεκενώθη· πίονται πάντες οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ τῆς γῆς.
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.
10 Ἐγὼ δὲ ἀγαλλιάσομαι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, ψαλῶ τῷ Θεῷ Ἰακώβ.
75:9 But I will declare this forever: I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
11 Καὶ πάντα τὰ κέρατα τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν συγκλάσω, καὶ ὑψωθήσεται τὰ κέρατα τοῦ δικαίου.
75:10 I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous shall be lifted up.

What the Fathers said

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 75:8 Augustine of Hippo, On Christian Doctrine (Book III, Chapters 22–27)

    There are passages, however, in regard to which it is uncertain in what sense they ought to be taken, as for example, "In the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red: it is full of mixture." Now it is uncertain whether this denotes the wrath of God, but not to the last extremity of …

  2. Quotes verse 75:3 Basil of Caesarea, Hexaemeron (Homily I)

    … to your thought, so that your curiosity in investigating the incomprehensible may not incur the reproaches of Job, and you be not asked by him, "Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?" If ever you hear in the Psalms, "I bear up the pillars of it;" see in these pillars the power which sustains it.
