Context of Psalms 76:10
8From heaven you said how you would judge people. Everybody on earth became afraid. They could not say anything! 9This happened when you came to punish wicked people. You came to rescue the weak and poor people in the land. Selah. Everybody will praise you, even those who are angry against you. You will show them how angry you really are. 11Make promises to the Lord your God, and do what you have promised. Everyone who serves God should bring gifts to him. We must respect him with fear. 12He makes proud rulers become humble. All the kings of the world should be afraid of him.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee - It shall be the occasion of praise; or, honor shall accrue to thee from it, “as if” it were employed in thy praise, and “as if” it were voluntarily engaged in promoting thy glory.
