| 1 | God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture? |
| 2 | Remember your congregation, which you purchased of old, Which you have redeemed to be the tribe of your inheritance; Mount Zion, in which you have lived. |
| 3 | Lift up your feet to the perpetual ruins, All the evil that the enemy has done in the sanctuary. |
| 4 | Your adversaries have roared in the midst of your assembly. They have set up their standards as signs. |
| 5 | They behaved like men wielding axes, Cutting through a thicket of trees. |
| 6 | Now all its carved work They break down with hatchet and hammers. |
| 7 | They have burned your sanctuary to the ground. They have profaned the dwelling-place of your Name. |
| 8 | They said in their heart, 'We will crush them completely.' They have burned up all the places in the land where God was worshipped. |
| 9 | We see no miraculous signs. There is no longer any prophet, Neither is there among us anyone who knows how long. |
| 10 | How long, God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever? |
| 11 | Why do you draw back your hand, even your right hand? Take it out of your pocket and consume them! |
| 12 | Yet God is my King of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth. |
| 13 | You divided the sea by your strength. You broke the heads of the sea monsters in the waters. |
| 14 | You broke the heads of Leviathan in pieces. You gave him as food to people and desert creatures. |
| 15 | You opened up spring and stream. You dried up mighty rivers. |
| 16 | The day is yours, the night is also yours. You have prepared the light and the sun. |
| 17 | You have set all the boundaries of the earth. You have made summer and winter. |
| 18 | Remember this, that the enemy has mocked you, Yahweh. Foolish people have blasphemed your name. |
| 19 | Don't deliver the soul of your dove to wild beasts. Don't forget the life of your poor forever. |
| 20 | Honor your covenant, For haunts of violence fill the dark places of the earth. |
| 21 | Don't let the oppressed return ashamed. Let the poor and needy praise your name. |
| 22 | Arise, God! Plead your own cause. Remember how the foolish man mocks you all day. |
| 23 | Don't forget the voice of your adversaries. The tumult of those who rise up against you ascends continually. Psalm 75 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of 'Do Not Destroy.' A Psalm by Asaph. A song. |
