1 To the choirmaster with stringed instruments a psalm of Asaph a song. [is] known In Judah God in Israel [is] great name his.

In Judah [Praised], God is known. His name is great in Israel [God prevails].

2 And it was in Salem lair his and den his in Zion.

His tabernacle is also in Salem [Complete peace, Perfect peace]; His dwelling place in Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking].

3 There he shattered flames of a bow shield and sword and battle (Selah)

There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

4 [are] lighted up You [are] majestic more than mountains of prey.

Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.

5 They were plundered - [people] mighty of heart they slumbered sleep their and not they found all [the] men of strength hands their.

Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.

6 From rebuke your O God of Jacob [were] sleeping and chariot and horse.

At your rebuke, God of Jacob [Supplanter], both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.

7 You - [are] to be feared you and who? will he stand before you from then anger your.

You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?

8 From heaven you proclaimed judgment [the] earth it was afraid and it was quiet.

You pronounced judgment to be sh'ma ·heard obeyed· from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,

9 When arose for judgment God to save all [the] humble [people] of [the] earth (Selah)

when God arose to judgment, to save all the afflicted ones of the earth. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

10 For [the] anger of humankind it will praise you [the] remainder of anger you will gird on.

Surely the wrath of man yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.

11 Make vows and pay [them] to Yahweh God your all [those] around him let them bring a gift to the awesome one.

Make vows to Adonai your God, and fulfill them! Let all of his neighbors bring presents to him who is to be feared.

12 He humbles [the] spirit of rulers [he is] to be feared by [the] kings of [the] earth.

He will cut off the spirit of princes. He is feared by the kings of the earth.
