New Living Translation (NLT)
Psalm 75
5 Don’t raise your fists in defiance at the heavens or speak with such arrogance.’”
6 For no one on earth—from east or west, or even from the wilderness— should raise a defiant fist.
7 It is God alone who judges; he decides who will rise and who will fall.
8 For the LORD holds a cup in his hand that is full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours out the wine in judgment, and all the wicked must drink it, draining it to the dregs.
9 But as for me, I will always proclaim what God has done; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 For God says, “I will break the strength of the wicked, but I will increase the power of the godly.”
Psalm 76
1 God is honored in Judah; his name is great in Israel.
2 Jerusalem is where he lives; Mount Zion is his home.
3 There he has broken the fiery arrows of the enemy, the shields and swords and weapons of war. Interlude
4 You are glorious and more majestic than the everlasting mountains.
5 Our boldest enemies have been plundered. They lie before us in the sleep of death. No warrior could lift a hand against us.
