Psalms 76

1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. In Judah is God known: His name is great in Israel.

TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG. God [is] known in Judah, His Name [is] great in Israel.

2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, And his dwelling-place in Zion.

And His dwelling place is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.

3 There he brake the arrows of the bow; The shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)

There He has shattered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)

4 Glorious art thou [and] excellent, From the mountains of prey.

You [are] bright, majestic above hills of prey.

5 The stouthearted are made a spoil, They have slept their sleep; And none of the men of might have found their hands.

The mighty of heart have spoiled themselves, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.

6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

From Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.

7 Thou, even thou, art to be feared; And who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

You, fearful [are] You, And who stands before You, Since You have been angry?

8 Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; The earth feared, and was still,

You have sounded judgment from the heavens, Earth has feared, and has been still,

9 When God arose to judgment, To save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)

In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of earth. (Selah)

10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: The residue of wrath shalt thou gird upon thee.

For the fierceness of man praises You, You gird on the remnant of fierceness.

11 Vow, and pay unto Jehovah your God: Let all that are round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

Vow and complete to your God YHWH, All you surrounding Him, They bring presents to the Fearful One.

12 He will cut off the spirit of princes: He is terrible to the kings of the earth.

He gathers the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings of earth!
