Psalms 76
The victorious power of the God of Jacob.
For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.
1 In Judah is God known:
His name is great in Israel.
2 In Salem also is his [a]tabernacle,
And his [b]dwelling-place in Zion.
3 There he brake the [c]arrows of the bow;
The shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah
4 Glorious art thou and excellent,
[d]From the mountains of prey.
5 The stouthearted are made a spoil,
They have slept their sleep;
And none of the men of might have found their hands.
6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
7 Thou, even thou, art to be feared;
And who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?
8 Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven;
The earth feared, and was still,
9 When God arose to judgment,
To save all the meek of the earth. Selah
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee:
The residue of wrath shalt thou [e]gird upon thee.
11 Vow, and pay unto Jehovah your God:
Let all that are round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
12 He will cut off the spirit of princes:
He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
