Psalms

76 Known in Judah is God,

in Israel his name is great,

2 And he has his lodge in Salem

and his dwelling in Sion.

3 There he broke quiver and bow,

shield and sword and battalion. (Selah)

4 More grand and resplendent are you

than mountains of prey.

5 Men of warlike heart were despoiled, lay sound asleep,

and not any stalwart men could find their hands.

6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob,

chariot and pony were in a trance.

7 Fearful are you, and who will stand his ground before you

in your moment of anger?

8 From heaven you proclaimed a sentence;

earth feared and was still

9 When God stood up for judgment

to save all earth’s sufferers. (Selah)

10 For man’s rage pays homage to you,

and the remnant from rage you gird up.

11 Vow and pay to your God Jehovah;

all who live around him shall bring tribute to the Fearful.

12 He abates the spirits of potentates;

he is fearful to the kings of earth.
