Psalms 76
The Victorious Power of the God of Jacob.
For the choir director; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.
1 God is (a)known in Judah;
His name is (b)great in Israel.
2 His [a](c)tabernacle is in (d)Salem;
His (e)dwelling place also is in Zion.
3 There He (f)broke the [b]flaming arrows,
The shield and the sword and the [c]weapons of war. [d]Selah.
4 You are resplendent,
[e]More majestic than the mountains of prey.
5 The (g)stouthearted were plundered,
[f]They sank into sleep;
And none of the [g]warriors could use his hands.
6 At Your (h)rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both [h](i)rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep.
7 You, even You, are (j)to be feared;
And (k)who may stand in Your presence when once [i]You are angry?
8 You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth (l)feared and was still
9 When God (m)arose to judgment,
To save all the humble of the earth. Selah.
10 For the [j](n)wrath of man shall praise You;
With a remnant of wrath You will gird Yourself.
11 (o)Make vows to the Lord your God and (p)fulfill them;
Let all who are around Him (q)bring gifts to Him who is to be feared.
12 He will cut off the spirit of princes;
He is [k](r)feared by the kings of the earth.
