Ps 75:1
75:1 <> Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, [unto
     thee] do we give thanks: for [that] thy name is near {b}
     thy wondrous works declare.

     (a) Read @Ps 57:1.
     (b) He declares how the faithful will always have
         opportunity to praise God, as in their need they will
         feel his power at hand to help them.

Ps 75:2
75:2 {c} When I shall receive the congregation I will judge
     uprightly.

     (c) When I see my time (says God) to help your miseries, I
         will come and set all things in good order.

Ps 75:3
75:3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I
     bear up the pillars {d} of it. Selah.

     (d) Though all things are brought to ruin, yet I can
         restore and preserve them.

Ps 75:5
75:5 Lift not up your {e} horn on high: speak [not with] a stiff
     neck.

     (e) The prophet warns the wicked that they would not set
         themselves against God's people, seeing that God at his
         time destroys them who rule wickedly.

Ps 75:8
75:8 For in the hand of the LORD [there is] a {f} 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].

     (f) God's wrath is compared to a cup of strong and delicate
         wine, with which the wicked are made so drunk that by
         drinking till they come to the very dregs they are
         utterly destroyed.

Ps 75:10
75:10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; [but] the
      horns of the {g} righteous shall be exalted.

      (g) The godly will better prosper by their innocent
          simplicity, than the wicked will by all their craft
          and subtilty.
