Psalms 76:5-12

5Our boldest enemies have been plundered. They lie before us in the sleep of death. No warrior could lift a hand against us.

6At the blast of your breath, O God of Jacob, their horses and chariots lay still.

7No wonder you are greatly feared! Who can stand before you when your anger explodes?

8From heaven you sentenced your enemies; the earth trembled and stood silent before you.

9You stand up to judge those who do evil, O God, and to rescue the oppressed of the earth. Interlude

10Human defiance only enhances your glory, for you use it as a weapon.

11Make vows to the Lord your God, and keep them. Let everyone bring tribute to the Awesome One.

12For he breaks the pride of princes, and the kings of the earth fear him.
