Psalm 76


The Majesty of God in Judgment

To the Chief Musician. On 1stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

In aJudah God is known;
His name is great in Israel.

2
In 1Salem also is His tabernacle,
And His dwelling place in Zion.

3
There He broke the arrows of the bow,
The shield and sword of battle.
Selah


4
You are more glorious and excellent
aThan the mountains of prey.

5
aThe stouthearted were plundered;
bThey 1have sunk into their sleep;
And none of the mighty men have found the use of their hands.

6
aAt Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both the chariot and horse were cast into a dead sleep.


7
You, Yourself, are to be feared;
And awho may stand in Your presence
When once You are angry?

8
aYou caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
bThe earth feared and was still,

9
When God aarose to judgment,
To deliver all the oppressed of the earth.
Selah


10
aSurely the wrath of man shall praise You;
With the remainder of wrath You shall gird Yourself.


11
aMake vows to the Lord your God, and pay them;
bLet all who are around Him bring presents to Him who ought to be feared.

12
He shall cut off the spirit of princes;
aHe is awesome to the kings of the earth.
