Psalms 76

1 For the end, amongst the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.

Al maestro de coro. Para instrumentos de cuerda. Salmo de Asaf. Dios se ha dado a conocer en Judá; grande es su Nombre en Israel.

2 And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.

Ha levantado en Salem su tabernáculo y su morada en Sión.

3 There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)

Allí quebró las fulmíneas saetas de los arcos y el escudo y la espada y la guerra.

4 You do wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.

Envuelto en luz Tú, Majestuoso, descendiste desde los montes eternos.

5 All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.

Despojados quedaron los de robusto corazón; duermen su sueño; no hallaron sus manos los hombres fuertes;

6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.

carros y caballos se paralizaron ante tu amenaza, oh Dios de Jacob.

7 You are terrible; and who shall withstand you, because of your anger?

Terrible eres Tú y ¿quién podrá estar de pie ante Ti cuando se encienda tu ira?

8 You did cause judgement to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

Desde el cielo hiciste oír tu juicio; la tierra tembló y quedó en silencio,

9 when God arose to judgement, to save all the meek in heart. (Pause)

al levantarse Dios a juicio, para salvar a todos los humildes de la tierra.

10 For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to you: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to you.

Hasta la furia de Edom redundará en tu gloria, y los sobrevivientes de Emat te festejarán:

11 Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,

haced votos y cumplidlos a Yahvé, vuestro Dios, y todos los pueblos en derredor suyo traigan ofrendas al Temible;

12 and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible amongst the kings of the earth.

a El, que quita el aliento a los príncipes; al Terrible para los reyes de la tierra.
