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.

Psalm 76
The Victorious Power of the God of Jacob.
To the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.
1God is known in Judah;
His name is great in Israel.
2His tabernacle is in Salem (Jerusalem);
His dwelling place is in Zion.
3There He broke the flaming arrows,
The shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah.
4¶You are glorious and resplendent,
More majestic than the mountains of prey.
5The stouthearted have been stripped of their spoil,
They have slept the sleep [of death];
And none of the warriors could use his hands.
6At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep [of death]. [Ex 15:1, 21; Nah 2:13; Zech 12:4]
7You, even You, are to be feared [with the submissive wonder of reverence];
Who may stand in Your presence when once You are angry?
8¶You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth feared and was quiet
9When God arose to [establish] judgment,
To save all the humble of the earth. Selah.
10For the wrath of man shall praise You;
With a remnant of wrath You will clothe and arm Yourself.
11¶Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them;
Let all who are around Him bring gifts to Him who is to be feared [with awe-inspired reverence].
12He will cut off the spirit of princes;
He is awesome and feared by the kings of the earth.
