Psalm 76
God, the Powerful Judge
For the choir director: with stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph.(A) A song.
1 God is known in Judah;
his name is great in Israel.(B)
2 His tent is in Salem,
his dwelling place in Zion.(C)
3 There he shatters the bow’s flaming arrows,
the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war.(D)Selah
4 You are resplendent and majestic
coming down from the mountains of prey.(E)
5 The brave-hearted have been plundered;
they have slipped into their final sleep.
None of the warriors was able to lift a hand.(F)
6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob,
both chariot and horse lay still.(G)
7 And you—you are to be feared.[a]
When you are angry,
who can stand before you?(H)
8 From heaven you pronounced judgment.
The earth feared and grew quiet(I)
9 when God rose up to judge
and to save all the lowly of the earth.(J)Selah
10 Even human wrath will praise you;
you will clothe yourself
with the wrath that remains.[b](K)
11 Make and keep your vows
to the Lord your God;(L)
let all who are around him bring tribute
to the awe-inspiring one.[c](M)
12 He humbles the spirit of leaders;
he is feared by the kings of the earth.(N)
