Chapter 74

¹ Unto the end, corrupt not, a psalm of a canticle for Asaph.
² We will praise thee, O God: we will praise, and we will call upon thy name. We will relate thy wondrous works:
³ when I shall take a time, I will judge justices.
⁴ The earth is melted, and all that dwell therein: I have established the pillars thereof.
⁵ I said to the wicked: Do not act wickedly: and to the sinners: Lift not up the horn.
⁶ Lift not up your horn on high: speak not iniquity against God.
⁷ For neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the desert hills:
⁸ for God is the judge. One he putteth down, and another he lifteth up:
⁹ for in the hand of the Lord there is a cup of strong wine full of mixture. And he hath poured it out from this to that: but the dregs thereof are not emptied: all the sinners of the earth shall drink.
¹⁰ But I will declare for ever: I will sing to the God of Jacob.
¹¹ And I will break all the horns of sinners: but the horns of the just shall be exalted.

Chapter 74

¹ Maschil of Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why doth thy anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?
² Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old: the rod of thy inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, in which thou hast dwelt.
³ Lift up thy feet to the perpetual desolations; even all that the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.
⁴ Thy enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs.
⁵ A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.
⁶ But now they break down the carved work of it at once with axes and hammers.
⁷ They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting down the dwelling-place of thy name to the ground.
⁸ They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.
⁹ We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.
¹⁰ O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy blaspheme thy name for ever?
¹¹ Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of thy bosom.
¹² For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.
¹³ Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou didst break the heads of the dragons in the waters.
¹⁴ Thou didst break the head of leviathan in pieces, and didst give him to be food to the people inhabiting the wilderness.
¹⁵ Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou didst dry up mighty rivers.
¹⁶ The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
¹⁷ Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.
¹⁸ Remember this, the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and the foolish people have blasphemed thy name.
¹⁹ O deliver not the soul of thy turtle dove to the multitude of the wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.
²⁰ Have respect to the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are full of the habitations of cruelty.
²¹ O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise thy name.
²² Arise, O God, plead thy own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.
²³ Forget not the voice of thy enemies: the tumult of those that rise against thee increaseth continually.

Psalm - basic english

Chapter 74

¹ <Maschil. Of Asaph.> Of God, why have you put us away from you for ever? why is the fire of your wrath smoking against the sheep who are your care?
² Keep in mind your band of worshippers, for whom you gave payment in the days which are past, whom you took for yourself as the people of your heritage; even this mountain of Zion, which has been your resting-place.
³ Go up and see the unending destruction; all the evil which your haters have done in the holy place;
⁴ Sending out their voices like lions among your worshippers; they have put up their signs to be seen.
⁵ They are cutting down, like a man whose blade is lifted up against the thick trees.
⁶ Your doors are broken down with hammers and iron blades.
⁷ They have put on fire your holy place; they have made the place of your name unclean, pulling it down to the earth.
⁸ They have said in their hearts, Let us put an end to them all together; they have given over to the fire all God's places of worship in the land.
⁹ We do not see our signs: there is no longer any prophet, or anyone among us to say how long.
¹⁰ O God, how long will those who are against us say cruel things? will the hater go on looking down on your name for ever?
¹¹ Why are you keeping back your hand, and covering your right hand in your robe?
¹² For from the past God is my King, working salvation in the earth.
¹³ The sea was parted in two by your strength; the heads of the great sea-beasts were broken.
¹⁴ The heads of the great snake were crushed by you; you gave them as food to the fishes of the sea.
¹⁵ You made valleys for fountains and springs; you made the ever-flowing rivers dry.
¹⁶ The day is yours and the night is yours: you made the light and the sun.
¹⁷ By you all the limits of the earth were fixed; you have made summer and winter.
¹⁸ Keep this in mind, O Lord, that your haters have said cruel things, and that your name has been looked down on by a people of evil behaviour.
¹⁹ O give not the soul of your dove to the hawk; let not the life of the poor go out of your memory for ever.
²⁰ Keep in mind your undertaking; for the dark places of the earth are full of pride and cruel acts.
²¹ O let not the crushed be turned back in shame; let the low man and the poor give praise to your name.
²² Up! O God, be the judge of your cause; keep in mind the bitter things which the man of evil behaviour says against you every day.
²³ Keep in mind the voice of your haters; the outcry of those who come against you goes up every day.
