Psalms 76
1 To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm [or] Song of Asaph. In Judah [is] God known: his name [is] great in Israel.
For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.
2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.
3 There he broke the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)
4 Thou [art] more glorious [and] excellent than the mountains of prey.
Thou dost wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.
5 The stout-hearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.
All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.
6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.
7 Thou, [even] thou, [art] to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?
Thou art terrible; and who shall withstand thee, because of thine anger?
8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)
when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek in heart. (Pause)
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath wilt thou restrain.
For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to thee: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to thee.
11 Vow, and pay to the LORD your God: let all that are about him bring presents to him that ought to be feared.
Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,
12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: [he is] terrible to the kings of the earth.
and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible among the kings of the earth.
