God’s Name is Great in Israel

¹ For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song. God is known in Judah; His name is great in Israel.² His tent is in Salem, His dwelling place in Zion.³ There He shattered the flaming arrows, the shield and sword and weapons of war. Selah⁴ You are resplendent with light, more majestic than mountains filled with game.⁵ The valiant lie plundered; they sleep their last sleep. No men of might could lift a hand.⁶ At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both horse and rider lie stunned.

⁷ You alone are to be feared. When You are angry, who can stand before You?⁸ From heaven You pronounced judgment, and the earth feared and was still⁹ when God rose up to judge, to save all the lowly of the earth. Selah¹⁰ Even the wrath of man shall praise You; with the survivors of wrath You will clothe Yourself^(a).¹¹ Make and fulfill your vows to the LORD your God; let all the neighboring lands bring tribute to Him who is to be feared.¹² He breaks the spirits of princes; He is feared by the kings of the earth.
