May we serve only the Captain of the Lord of Hosts, as the battle for Israel & her lovely city approaches. He will be her Master & Protector, and in His zeal He will perform His ultimate plan. All glory, power & honor is due Him Who sits on the throne. Amen.
Psalm 75
Thanksgiving for God’s Wondrous Deeds
To the leader: Do Not Destroy.
A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.
1We give thanks to you, O God;
we give thanks; your name is near.
People tell of your wondrous deeds.
2At the set time that I appoint
I will judge with equity.
3When the earth totters, with all its inhabitants,
it is I who keep its pillars steady.
Selah
4I say to the boastful, ‘Do not boast’,
and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn;
5do not lift up your horn on high,
or speak with insolent neck.’
6For not from the east or from the west
and not from the wilderness comes lifting up;
7but it is God who executes judgement,
putting down one and lifting up another.
8For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup
with foaming wine, well mixed;
he will pour a draught from it,
and all the wicked of the earth
shall drain it down to the dregs.
9But I will rejoice* for ever;
I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10All the horns of the wicked I will cut off,
but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
