Psalms 76
1 For the Leader; with string-music. 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 In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion.
And his place is maad in pees; and his dwellyng is in Syon.
3 There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
Ther he brak poweris; bowe, scheeld, swerd, and batel.
4 Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey.
And thou, God, liytnest wondirfuli fro euerlastynge hillis;
5 The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep 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, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses.
Thei that stieden on horsis; slepten for thi blamyng, thou God of Jacob.
7 Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry?
Thou art feerful, and who schal ayenstonde thee? fro that tyme thin ire.
8 Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
Fro heuene thou madist doom herd; the erthe tremblide, and restide.
9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. (Selah)
Whanne God roos vp in to doom; to make saaf al the mylde men of erthe.
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee.
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 the LORD 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 minisheth 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.
