Psalm 76

Who Can Stand Before You?

76To the choirmaster: with ^cstringed instruments. A Psalm of ^dAsaph. A Song.

¹In Judah God is ^eknown;

his name is great in Israel.

²His ^fabode has been established in ^gSalem,

his ^hdwelling place in Zion.

³There he ⁱbroke the flashing arrows,

the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah

⁴Glorious are you, more majestic

^jthan the mountains full of ^kprey.

^5lThe stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;

^mthey sank into sleep;

all the men of war

were unable to use their hands.

⁶At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,

both ⁿrider and horse lay stunned.

^7oBut you, you are to be feared!

Who can ^pstand before you

when once your anger is roused?

⁸From the heavens you uttered judgment;

^qthe earth feared and was still,

⁹when God ^rarose to establish judgment,

to save all the humble of the earth. Selah

¹⁰Surely ^sthe wrath of man shall praise you;

the remnant¹ of wrath you will put on like a belt.

^11tMake your vows to the Lord your God and perform them;

let all around him ^ubring gifts

to him who ^vis to be feared,

¹²who ^wcuts off the spirit of princes,

who ^xis to be feared by the kings of the earth.
