< Psalms 76 >

1 To the choirmaster with stringed instruments a psalm of Asaph a song. [is] known In Judah God in Israel [is] great name his.
To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme or song committed to Asaph. God is knowen in Iudah: his Name is great in Israel.
2 And it was in Salem lair his and den his in Zion.
For in Shalem is his Tabernacle, and his dwelling in Zion.
3 There he shattered flames of a bow shield and sword and battle (Selah)
There brake he the arrowes of the bowe, the shielde and the sword and the battell. (Selah)
4 [are] lighted up You [are] majestic more than mountains of prey.
Thou art more bright and puissant, then the mountaines of pray.
5 They were plundered - [people] mighty of heart they slumbered sleep their and not they found all [the] men of strength hands their.
The stout hearted are spoyled: they haue slept their sleepe, and all the men of strength haue not found their hands.
6 From rebuke your O God of Jacob [were] sleeping and chariot and horse.
At thy rebuke, O God of Iaakob, both the chariot and horse are cast a sleepe.
7 You - [are] to be feared you and who? will he stand before you from then anger your.
Thou, euen thou art to be feared: and who shall stand in thy sight, when thou art angrie!
8 From heaven you proclaimed judgment [the] earth it was afraid and it was quiet.
Thou didest cause thy iudgement to bee heard from heauen: therefore the earth feared and was still,
9 When arose for judgment God to save all [the] humble [people] of [the] earth (Selah)
When thou, O God, arose to iudgement, to helpe all the meeke of the earth. (Selah)
10 For [the] anger of humankind it will praise you [the] remainder of anger you will gird on.
Surely the rage of man shall turne to thy praise: the remnant of the rage shalt thou restrayne.
11 Make vows and pay [them] to Yahweh God your all [those] around him let them bring a gift to the awesome one.
Vowe and performe vnto the Lord your God, all ye that be rounde about him: let them bring presents vnto him that ought to be feared.
12 He humbles [the] spirit of rulers [he is] to be feared by [the] kings of [the] earth.
He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the Kings of the earth.
