For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A song. God is known in Judah; His name is great in Israel.

His tent is in Salem, His dwelling place in Zion.

You are resplendent with light, more majestic than mountains filled with game.

At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both horse and rider lie stunned.

From heaven You pronounced judgment, and the earth feared and was still
9 Na lawkcengnae lawk hah kalvan hoi na patoun teh, talai teh taki laihoi duem ao. (Selah)
when God rose up to judge, to save all the lowly of the earth.
10 Taminaw e lungkhueknae ni na pholen roeroe han. Ka cawi e lungkhueknae hai na keng dawk na kâyeng han.
Even the wrath of man shall praise You; with the survivors of wrath You will clothe Yourself.
