Psalms 75

Psalms 75:2

When I shall receive the congregation, I will judge uprightly.

When I shall, in thine appointed time, take upon me the charge of thy people, I will rule them justly and unpartially.

Psalms 75:3

The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it.

Both the whole world, and thy Church in special, are full of troubles, and dangerous affrights: it is I, whom thou hast, from all eternity, ordained to be a Mediator betwixt thee and it, that sustain and uphold it from ruin.

Psalms 75:8

For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring out, and drink them.

God hath set to every man his measure of sorrow and affliction; and to the wicked he hath determined very grievous plagues and sufferings, which they must of force undergo: and if his children drink of the clear wine of this bitter cup, they, which are his enemies, shall drink of the lees and dregs thereof, and shall be judged in his extreme displeasure.

Psalms 75:10

All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off.

The proud strength and power of wicked men, wherein they boast themselves, shall be abated and utterly disappointed, to their shame.
