[ Read](/kjv/psalms/75)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/75)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/75) Audio

 1 Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, *unto thee* do we give thanks: for *that* thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.**

 2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.*

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

 4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:

 5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak *not with* a stiff neck.

 6 For promotion *cometh* neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.*

 7 But God *is* the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

 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 *them* out, *and* drink *them*.

 9 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

 10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; *but* the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
 
[Psalms 74](/study/psalms/74) [Psalms 76](/study/psalms/76)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
**Of Asaph;**as the author. Or, *to* or *for* Asaph; which may be put by way of opposition to the foregoing and general expression, 

**to the chief Musician,**which is here limited to and explained of Asaph. As [Psalms 62:1](/kjv/psalms/62/1), having said *to the chief Musician*, he adds *to Jeduthun*; and then follows the author, *David*. This Psalm was either composed by David, or by Asaph in David’s name and person, as it is not unusual for poets to bring in princes speaking in their poems. It seems to relate to the time when David had entered upon, but not got full possession of, the kingdom. 

**Do we give thanks;**I, in my own and in my people’s name. 

**Thy name,**i.e. thyself; or thy power. Is near; is present with us, and most ready to help us when we cry unto thee, as this phrase is taken, [Psalms 34:18](/kjv/psalms/34/18); [Psalms 145:18](/kjv/psalms/145/18). Thou art not departed from us; thou dost not now stand afar off, as once thou didst, [Psalms 10:1](/kjv/psalms/10/1). 

**Thy wondrous works,**wrought on my behalf, and for the good of thy people.
