Psalm 76

Psalm 76

To the Chief Musician. On Stringed Instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

¹In ^aJudah God is known; His name is great in Israel.

²In ²Salem also is His tabernacle,

And His dwelling place in Zion.

³There He broke the arrows of the bow,

The shield and sword of battle.

Selah

⁴You are more glorious and excellent

^bThan the mountains of prey.

^5cThe stouthearted were plundered;

^dThey ³have sunk into their sleep;

And none of the mighty men have found the use of their hands.

^6eAt Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,

Both the chariot and horse were cast into a dead sleep.

⁷You, Yourself, are to be feared;

And ^fwho may stand in Your presence

When once You are angry?

^8gYou caused judgment to be heard from heaven;

^hThe earth feared and was still,

⁹When God ⁱarose to judgment,

To deliver all the oppressed of the earth.

Selah

^10jSurely the wrath of man shall praise You;

With the remainder of wrath You shall gird Yourself.

^11kMake vows to the Lord your God, and pay them;

^lLet all who are around Him bring presents to Him who ought to be feared.

¹²He shall cut off the spirit of princes;

^mHe is awesome to the kings of the earth.
