Psalms 75:8
in the hand . . . a cup . . . red—God's wrath often thus represented (compare Isaiah 51:17 Jeremiah 25:15).
but the dregs—literally, "surely the dregs, they shall drain it."
8 For ain the hand of the Lord there is a cup,
And the wine is red;
It is fully mixed, and He pours it out;
Surely its dregs shall all the wicked of the earth
Drain and drink down.
And the wine is red;
It is fully mixed, and He pours it out;
Surely its dregs shall all the wicked of the earth
Drain and drink down.
10 “Alla the horns of the wicked I will also cut off,
But bthe horns of the righteous shall be cexalted.”
But bthe horns of the righteous shall be cexalted.”

Psalms 75:4-8
Here the writer speaks in view of God's declaration, warning the wicked.
Lift . . . up the horn—to exalt power, here, of the wicked himself—that is, to be arrogant or self-elated.
