Psalms 76

The Majesty of God in Judgment

To the Chief Musician. On [a]stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

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

Psalm 76^a

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song.

God is renowned in Judah;
in Israel his name is great.

In [b]Salem also is His tabernacle,
And His dwelling place in Zion.

His tent is in Salem,
his dwelling place in Zion.

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

There he broke the flashing arrows,
the shields and the swords, the weapons of war.b

You are more glorious and excellent
Than the mountains of prey.

You are radiant with light,
more majestic than mountains rich with game.

The stouthearted were plundered;
They [c]have sunk into their sleep;
And none of the mighty men have found the use of their hands.

The valiant lie plundered,
they sleep their last sleep;
not one of the warriors
can lift his hands.

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

At your rebuke, God of Jacob,
both horse and chariot lie still.

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

It is you alone who are to be feared.
Who can stand before you when you are angry?

You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth feared and was still,

From heaven you pronounced judgment,
and the land feared and was quiet —

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

when you, God, rose up to judge,
to save all the afflicted of the land.

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

Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise,
and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.c

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

Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them;
let all the neighboring lands
bring gifts to the One to be feared.

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

He breaks the spirit of rulers;
he is feared by the kings of the earth.
