Psalms 76
1 For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song. God is famous in Judah; his reputation is great throughout 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 He lives in Jerusalem; his home is in Zion.
And his place is maad in pees; and his dwellyng is in Syon.
3 There he broke the flaming arrows, the shields, the swords, and the weapons of war. (Selah)
Ther he brak poweris; bowe, scheeld, swerd, and batel.
4 You shine with light; you are more majestic than the everlasting mountains.
And thou, God, liytnest wondirfuli fro euerlastynge hillis;
5 Our most courageous enemies have been plundered. They sleep the sleep of death. Even the strongest of them could not raise a hand against us.
alle vnwise men of herte weren troblid. Thei slepten her sleep; and alle men founden no thing of richessis in her hondis.
6 At your command, God of Jacob, both horse and rider fell down dead.
Thei that stieden on horsis; slepten for thi blamyng, thou God of Jacob.
7 You are terrifying—who can stand before you when you are angry?
Thou art feerful, and who schal ayenstonde thee? fro that tyme thin ire.
8 From heaven you announced judgment. Everyone on earth was afraid and stood still,
Fro heuene thou madist doom herd; the erthe tremblide, and restide.
9 when you stood up to judge, to save the oppressed people of the earth. (Selah)
Whanne God roos vp in to doom; to make saaf al the mylde men of erthe.
10 Even human anger against you makes you look glorious, for you wear it alike a crown.
For the thouyt of man schal knouleche to thee; and the relifs of thouyt schulen make a feeste dai to thee.
11 Make your promises to God and be sure to keep them. Everyone bring gifts to the awe-inspiring one.
Make ye a vow, and yelde ye to youre Lord God; alle that bringen yiftis in the cumpas of it.
12 For he humbles proud leaders; he terrifies 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.
