Psalms 76

The Victorious Power of the God of Jacob.

For the music director; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.

1God is 1known in Judah; His name is 2great in Israel.2His 3 4tabernacle is in 5Salem; His 6dwelling place also is in Zion.3There He 7broke the 8flaming arrows, The shield, the sword, and the 9weapons of war. Selah

4You are resplendent, 10More majestic than the mountains of prey.5The 11stouthearted were plundered, 12They sank into sleep; And none of the 13warriors could use his hands.6At Your 14rebuke, God of Jacob, Both 15 16rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep.7You, You indeed are 17to be feared, And 18who may stand in Your presence, 19once You are angry?

8You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; The earth 20feared and was still9When God 21arose to judgment, To save all the humble of the earth. Selah10For the 22 23wrath of mankind shall praise You; You will encircle Yourself with a remnant of wrath.

11 24Make vows to the Lord your God and 25fulfill them; All who are around Him are to 26bring gifts to Him who is to be feared.12He will cut off the spirit of princes; He is 27 28feared by the kings of the earth.
