Psalms 76
1 TO THE OVERSEER. WITH STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. A PSALM OF ASAPH. A SONG. God [is] known in Judah, His Name [is] great in Israel.
In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.
2 And His dwelling place is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.
In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
3 There He has shattered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)
There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
4 You [are] bright, majestic above hills of prey.
You are more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.
5 The mighty of heart have spoiled themselves, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.
The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.
6 From Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.
At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
7 You, fearful [are] You, And who stands before You, Since You have been angry?
You, even you, are to be feared: and who may stand in your sight when once you are angry?
8 You have sounded judgment from the heavens, Earth has feared, and has been still,
You did cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
9 In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of earth. (Selah)
When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)
10 For the fierceness of man praises You, You gird on the remnant of fierceness.
Surely the wrath of man shall praise you: the remainder of wrath shall you restrain.
11 Vow and complete to your God YHWH, All you surrounding Him, They bring presents to the Fearful One.
Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
12 He gathers the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings of earth!
He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.
