Psalm 76
For the choir director; on stringed instruments; a psalm by Asaph; a song.
1God is known in Judah.
His name is great in Israel.
2His tent is in Salem.
His home is in Zion.
3There he destroyed flaming arrows,
shields, swords, and weapons of war. Selah
4You are the radiant one.
You are more majestic than the ancient mountains.#76:4 Greek, Syriac; Masoretic Text “mountains of prey.”
5Brave people were robbed.
They died.
None of the warriors were able to lift a hand.
6At your stern warning, O God of Jacob,
chariot riders and horses were put to sleep.
7You alone must be feared!
Who can stand in your presence when you become angry?
8From heaven you announced a verdict.
The earth was fearful and silent
9when you rose to judge, O God,
when you rose to save every oppressed person on earth. Selah
10Even angry mortals will praise you.
You will wear the remainder of ⌞their⌟ anger.
11Make vows to the Lord your God, and keep them.
Let everyone around him bring gifts to the one who must be feared.
12He cuts short the lives of influential people.
He terrifies the kings of the earth.

Psalms 76
76
For the Music Director. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.
1In Judah God is known;
His name is great in Israel.
2His abode # Ge 14:18 is in Salem,
His dwelling place in Zion.
3There He broke the flaming arrows of the bow,
the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. # Ps 46:9 Selah
4You are more glorious and excellent
than the mountains of prey.
5The stouthearted were plundered; # Isa 46:12
they sank into sleep; # Ps 13:3
and none of the mighty men
could use his hands.
6At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
both the rider and horse lay stunned. # Ex 15:1, 21
7But You indeed are to be feared; # Ps 89:7
who may stand in Your presence once You are angry? # Na 1:6
8You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
the earth feared and was still, # 2Ch 20:29–30; Hab 2:20
9when God arose to judgment,
to save all the meek of the earth. Selah
10Surely the wrath of man shall praise You;
with the remainder of wrath You will gird Yourself.
11Make your vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them; # Ps 50:14
let all who are around Him
bring tribute to Him who is to be feared. # Ps 68:29
12He will cut off the spirit of princes;
He is feared by the kings of the earth.
