To the chief MusicianH5329, AltaschithH516, A PsalmH4210 or SongH7892 of AsaphH623. Unto thee, O GodH430, do we give thanksH3034, unto thee do we give thanksH3034: for that thy nameH8034 is nearH7138 thy wondrous worksH6381 declareH5608. {Altaschith: or, Destroy not} {of: or, for}
When I shall receiveH3947 the congregationH4150 I will judgeH8199 uprightlyH4339. {receive…: or, take a set time}
The earthH776 and all the inhabitantsH3427 thereof are dissolvedH4127: I bear upH8505 the pillarsH5982 of it. SelahH5542.
I saidH559 unto the foolsH1984, Deal not foolishlyH1984: and to the wickedH7563, Lift not upH7311 the hornH7161:
Lift not upH7311 your hornH7161 on highH4791: speakH1696 not with a stiffH6277 neckH6677.
For promotionH7311+H2022 cometh neither from the eastH4161, nor from the westH4628, nor from the southH4057. {south: Heb. desert}
But GodH430 is the judgeH8199: he putteth downH8213 one, and setteth upH7311 another.
For in the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 there is a cupH3563, and the wineH3196 is redH2560; it is fullH4392 of mixtureH4538; and he poureth outH5064 of the sameH2088: but the dregsH8105 thereof, all the wickedH7563 of the earthH776 shall wring them outH4680, and drinkH8354 them.
But I will declareH5046 for everH5769; I will sing praisesH2167 to the GodH430 of JacobH3290.
All the hornsH7161 of the wickedH7563 also will I cut offH1438; but the hornsH7161 of the righteousH6662 shall be exaltedH7311.
Querverweise zu Psalm 75,3 Ps 75,3
To the chief MusicianH5329 upon ShushaneduthH7802, MichtamH4387 of DavidH1732, to teachH3925; when he stroveH5327 with AramnaharaimH763+H5104 and with AramzobahH760, when JoabH3097 returnedH7725, and smoteH5221 of EdomH123 in the valleyH1516 of saltH4417 twelveH8147+H6240 thousandH505. O GodH430, thou hast cast us offH2186, thou hast scatteredH6555 us, thou hast been displeasedH599; O turn thyself to us againH7725. {Michtam: or, A golden Psalm} {scattered: Heb. broken}
Thou hast made the earthH776 to trembleH7493; thou hast brokenH6480 it: healH7495 the breachesH7667 thereof; for it shakethH4131.
Thou hast shewedH7200 thy peopleH5971 hard thingsH7186: thou hast made us to drinkH8248 the wineH3196 of astonishmentH8653.
And the womenH802 answeredH6030 one another as they playedH7832, and saidH559, SaulH7586 hath slainH5221 his thousandsH505, and DavidH1732 his ten thousandsH7233.
He raiseth upH6965 the poorH1800 out of the dustH6083, and lifteth upH7311 the beggarH34 from the dunghillH830, to setH3427 them among princesH5081, and to make them inheritH5157 the throneH3678 of gloryH3519: for the pillarsH4690 of the earthH776 are the LORD'SH3068, and he hath setH7896 the worldH8398 upon them.
So that he forsookH5203 the tabernacleH4908 of ShilohH7887, the tentH168 which he placedH7931 among menH120;
And deliveredH5414 his strengthH5797 into captivityH7628, and his gloryH8597 into the enemy'sH6862 handH3027.
He gaveH5462 his peopleH5971 overH5462 also unto the swordH2719; and was wrothH5674 with his inheritanceH5159.
The fireH784 consumedH398 their young menH970; and their maidensH1330 were not given to marriageH1984. {given…: Heb. praised}
Their priestsH3548 fellH5307 by the swordH2719; and their widowsH490 made no lamentationH1058.
Then the LordH136 awakedH3364 as one out of sleepH3463, and like a mighty manH1368 that shoutethH7442 by reason of wineH3196.
And he smoteH5221 his enemiesH6862 in the hinder partsH268: he putH5414 them to a perpetualH5769 reproachH2781.
Moreover he refusedH3988 the tabernacleH168 of JosephH3130, and choseH977 not the tribeH7626 of EphraimH669:
But choseH977 the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063, the mountH2022 ZionH6726 which he lovedH157.
And he builtH1129 his sanctuaryH4720 like highH7311 palaces, like the earthH776 which he hath establishedH3245 for everH5769. {established: Heb. founded}
He choseH977 DavidH1732 also his servantH5650, and tookH3947 him from the sheepfoldsH4356+H6629:
From followingH310 the ewes great with youngH5763 he broughtH935 him to feedH7462 JacobH3290 his peopleH5971, and IsraelH3478 his inheritanceH5159. {following: Heb. after}
So he fedH7462 them according to the integrityH8537 of his heartH3824; and guidedH5148 them by the skilfulnessH8394 of his handsH3709.
I pray thee, forgiveH5375 the trespassH6588 of thine handmaidH519: for the LORDH3068 will certainlyH6213 makeH6213 my lordH113 a sureH539 houseH1004; because my lordH113 fightethH3898 the battlesH4421 of the LORDH3068, and evilH7451 hath not been foundH4672 in thee all thy daysH3117.
Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478: and the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fell downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533. {slain: or, wounded}
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 upon SaulH7586 and upon his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, Saul'sH7586 sonsH1121.
And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH3384+H582+H7198 hitH4672 him; and he was soreH3966 woundedH2342 of the archersH3384+H582+H7198. {and the archers: Heb. and the shooters, men with bows} {hit…: Heb. found him}
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 unto his armourbearerH5375+H3627, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrust me throughH1856 therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and thrust me throughH1856, and abuseH5953 me. But his armourbearerH5375+H3627 wouldH14 not; for he was soreH3966 afraidH3372. Therefore SaulH7586 tookH3947 a swordH2719, and fellH5307 upon it. {abuse…: or, mock me}
And when his armourbearerH5375+H3627 sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he fellH5307 likewise upon his swordH2719, and diedH4191 with him.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191, and his threeH7969 sonsH1121, and his armourbearerH5375+H3627, and all his menH582, that same dayH3117 togetherH3162.
And when the menH582 of IsraelH3478 that were on the other sideH5676 of the valleyH6010, and they that were on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383, sawH7200 that the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127, and that SaulH7586 and his sonsH1121 were deadH4191, they forsookH5800 the citiesH5892, and fledH5127; and the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 and dweltH3427 in them.
Also in time pastH865+H8032, when SaulH7586 was kingH4428 over us, thou wast he that leddest outH3318 and broughtest inH935 IsraelH3478: and the LORDH3068 saidH559 to thee, Thou shalt feedH7462 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and thou shalt be a captainH5057 over IsraelH3478.
Behold, the LORDH3068 maketh the earthH776 emptyH1238, and maketh it wasteH1110, and turnethH5753 it upside downH6440, and scattereth abroadH6327 the inhabitantsH3427 thereof. {turneth…: Heb. perverteth the face thereof}
And it shall be, as with the peopleH5971, so with the priestH3548; as with the servantH5650, so with his masterH113; as with the maidH8198, so with her mistressH1404; as with the buyerH7069, so with the sellerH4376; as with the lenderH3867, so with the borrowerH3867; as with the taker of usuryH5383, soH834 with the giver of usuryH5378 to him. {priest: or, prince}
The landH776 shall be utterlyH1238 emptiedH1238, and utterlyH962 spoiledH962: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696 this wordH1697.
The earthH776 mournethH56 and fadeth awayH5034, the worldH8398 languishethH535 and fadeth awayH5034, the haughtyH4791 peopleH5971 of the earthH776 do languishH535. {the haughty…: Heb. the height of the people}
The earthH776 also is defiledH2610 under the inhabitantsH3427 thereof; because they have transgressedH5674 the lawsH8451, changedH2498 the ordinanceH2706, brokenH6565 the everlastingH5769 covenantH1285.
Therefore hath the curseH423 devouredH398 the earthH776, and they that dwellH3427 therein are desolateH816: therefore the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776 are burnedH2787, and fewH4213 menH582 leftH7604.
The new wineH8492 mournethH56, the vineH1612 languishethH535, all the merryheartedH8056+H3820 do sighH584.
The mirthH4885 of tabretsH8596 ceasethH7673, the noiseH7588 of them that rejoiceH5947 endethH2308, the joyH4885 of the harpH3658 ceasethH7673.
They shall not drinkH8354 wineH3196 with a songH7892; strong drinkH7941 shall be bitterH4843 to them that drinkH8354 it.
The cityH7151 of confusionH8414 is broken downH7665: every houseH1004 is shut upH5462, that no man may come inH935.
There is a cryingH6682 for wineH3196 in the streetsH2351; all joyH8057 is darkenedH6150, the mirthH4885 of the landH776 is goneH1540.
In the cityH5892 is leftH7604 desolationH8047, and the gateH8179 is smittenH3807 with destructionH7591.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, In an acceptableH7522 timeH6256 have I heardH6030 thee, and in a dayH3117 of salvationH3444 have I helpedH5826 thee: and I will preserveH5341 thee, and giveH5414 thee for a covenantH1285 of the peopleH5971, to establishH6965 the earthH776, to cause to inheritH5157 the desolateH8074 heritagesH5159; {establish: or, raise up}
WhoG3739 beingG5607 the brightnessG541 of his gloryG1391, andG2532 the express imageG5481 of hisG846 personG5287, andG5037 upholdingG5342 all thingsG3956 by the wordG4487 of hisG846 powerG1411, when he hadG4160+G2512 byG1223 himselfG1438 purgedG4160+G2512 ourG2257 sinsG266, sat downG2523 onG1722 the right handG1188 of the MajestyG3172 onG1722 highG5308;
