Psalms 76

1 To the victorie in orguns, `the salm of the song of Asaph. God is knowun in Judee; his name is greet in Israel.

To the Chief Musician. With Stringed Instruments. A Melody of Asaph, a Song. God is, known in Judah, In Israel, great is his Name;

2 And his place is maad in pees; and his dwellyng is in Syon.

Now hath come into Salem, his pavilion, And his dwelling-place into Zion.

3 Ther he brak poweris; bowe, scheeld, swerd, and batel.

There, hath he broken in pieces the arrows of the bow, shield and sword, and battle. (Selah)

4 And thou, God, liytnest wondirfuli fro euerlastynge hillis;

Enveloped in light, thou, art more majestic than the mountains of prey.

5 alle vnwise men of herte weren troblid. Thei slepten her sleep; and alle men founden no thing of richessis in her hondis.

The valiant of heart have become a spoil, They have slumbered their sleep, And none of the men of might have found their hands.

6 Thei that stieden on horsis; slepten for thi blamyng, thou God of Jacob.

At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Stunned are the horsemen.

7 Thou art feerful, and who schal ayenstonde thee? fro that tyme thin ire.

As for thee, to be feared thou art! Who then shall stand before thee, because of the power of thine anger?

8 Fro heuene thou madist doom herd; the erthe tremblide, and restide.

Out of the heavens, didst thou cause judgment to be heard, Earth, feared and was still:

9 Whanne God roos vp in to doom; to make saaf al the mylde men of erthe.

When God rose up to judgment, To save all the oppressed of the earth. (Selah)

10 For the thouyt of man schal knouleche to thee; and the relifs of thouyt schulen make a feeste dai to thee.

For the multitude of mankind shall give thanks unto thee, The remainder of the multitude, shall keep holy festival unto thee.

11 Make ye a vow, and yelde ye to youre Lord God; alle that bringen yiftis in the cumpas of it.

Vow and pay, unto Yahweh your God, —Let, all who are round about him, bear along a gift unto him who is to be revered.

12 To God ferdful, and to him that takith awei the spirit of prynces; to the ferdful at the kyngis of erthe.

He cutteth off the spirit of nobles, he is of reverend majesty to the kings of the earth.
