Psalms 76
1 To 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 victorie in orguns, `the salm of the song of Asaph. God is knowun in Judee; his name is greet in Israel.
2 And in Salem is his tent, and his dwelling-place in Zion.
And his place is maad in pees; and his dwellyng is in Syon.
3 There broke he the flashings of the bow, shield and sword and battle. (Selah)
Ther he brak poweris; bowe, scheeld, swerd, and batel.
4 More glorious art thou, more excellent, than the mountains of prey.
And thou, God, liytnest wondirfuli fro euerlastynge hillis;
5 The stout-hearted are made a spoil, they have slept their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.
alle vnwise men of herte weren troblid. Thei slepten her sleep; and alle men founden no thing of richessis in her hondis.
6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
Thei that stieden on horsis; slepten for thi blamyng, thou God of Jacob.
7 Thou, thou art to be feared, and who can stand before thee when once thou art angry?
Thou art feerful, and who schal ayenstonde thee? fro that tyme thin ire.
8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from the heavens; the earth feared, and was still,
Fro heuene thou madist doom herd; the erthe tremblide, and restide.
9 When God rose up to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)
Whanne God roos vp in to doom; to make saaf al the mylde men of erthe.
10 For the fury of man shall praise thee; the remainder of fury wilt thou gird on thyself.
For the thouyt of man schal knouleche to thee; and the relifs of thouyt schulen make a feeste dai to thee.
11 Vow and pay unto Jehovah your God: let all that are round about him bring presents unto him that is to be feared.
Make ye a vow, and yelde ye to youre Lord God; alle that bringen yiftis in the cumpas of it.
12 He cutteth off the spirit of princes; [he] is terrible to the kings of the earth.
To God ferdful, and to him that takith awei the spirit of prynces; to the ferdful at the kyngis of erthe.
