Psalms, chapter 76

1. For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.
2. In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel.
3. In Salem also is set His tabernacle, And His dwelling-place in Zion.
4. There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; The shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah
5. Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey.
6. The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; And none of the men of might have found their hands.
7. At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, They are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses.
8. Thou, even Thou, art terrible; And who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry?
9. Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; The earth feared, and was still,
10. When God arose to judgment, To save all the humble of the earth. Selah
11. Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; The residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee.
12. Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; Let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared;
13. He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
