Berean Standard Bible

“We give thanks to You, O God; we give thanks, for Your Name is near. The people declare Your wondrous works.”

Psalms 75:1

Save as image

Study note

Psalms 75 is a song of Asaph that celebrates God as the righteous judge who brings down the proud and lifts up the humble. It likely came from a time when Israel faced arrogant enemies, and it affirms that promotion and demotion come not from human schemes but from God.
