The Psalms

Psalm 76

For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a song.

 ^76:1In Judah is God known:

 His name is great in Israel.

 ^76:2In Salem also is his tabernacle,

 And his dwelling-place in Zion.

 ^76:3There he brake the arrows of the bow;

 The shield, and the sword, and the battle.

Selah

 ^76:4Glorious art thou and excellent,

 From the mountains of prey.

 ^76:5The stouthearted are made a spoil,

 They have slept their sleep;

 And none of the men of might have found their hands.

 ^76:6At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob,

 Both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.

 ^76:7Thou, even thou, art to be feared;

 And who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

 ^76:8Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven;

 The earth feared, and was still,

 ^76:9When God arose to judgment,

 To save all the meek of the earth.

Selah

 ^76:10Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee:

 The residue of wrath shalt thou gird upon thee.

 ^76:11Vow, and pay unto Jehovah your God:

 Let all that are round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

 ^76:12He will cut off the spirit of princes:

 He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
