Psalms 75
AOSNPsalms 75:1-10
This hymn of thanksgiving includes two direct messages from God that assure us of his justice (Psalm 75:2–3, 10). The Lord warns arrogant people who defy him, promising to humble them by force (Psalm 75:4–8). Together, the community and the psalmist give thanks for God's character (Psalm 75:1, 9).
Psalms 75:2-8
The Lord will bring justice in his own time.
Psalms 75:4-5
The wicked proudly defy heaven, where God lives. By boasting, they claim that they are wiser than God.
Psalms 75:6
No creature has the right to rebel against its Creator.
Psalms 75:7-8
The Lord alone is the Judge. He has the power to raise people up or bring them down (see 1 Samuel 2:7; Luke 1:52).
