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
76
Who Can Stand Before You?
To the choirmaster: with #Ps. 4, title stringed instruments. A Psalm of #See Ps. 50, titleAsaph. A Song.
1In Judah God is #Ps. 48:3known;
his name is great in Israel.
2His #Ps. 27:5; Lam. 2:6 abode has been established in #Gen. 14:18 Salem,
his #Ps. 9:11; 74:2dwelling place in Zion.
3There he #Ps. 46:9; [Ezek. 39:9]broke the flashing arrows,
the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah
4Glorious are you, more majestic
# [Isa. 14:25; Ezek. 39:4] than the mountains full of #Nah. 2:13prey.
5 #
Isa. 46:12 The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;
#
Ps. 13:3; 2 Kgs. 19:35; Jer. 51:39; Nah. 3:18 they sank into sleep;
all the men of war
were unable to use their hands.
6At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
both #Ex. 15:1, 21rider and horse lay stunned.
7 #
Ps. 47:2 But you, you are to be feared!
Who can #Ps. 130:3stand before you
when once your anger is roused?
8From the heavens you uttered judgment;
#
2 Chr. 20:29, 30; [Hab. 2:20] the earth feared and was still,
9when God #[Ps. 9:7, 8]arose to establish judgment,
to save all the humble of the earth. Selah
10Surely #[Ex. 9:16]the wrath of man shall praise you;
the remnant#76:10 Or extremity of wrath you will put on like a belt.
11 # See Ps. 50:14 Make your vows to the Lord your God and perform them;
let all around him #See Ps. 68:29 bring gifts
to him who #Ps. 89:7; Gen. 31:42, 53; Isa. 8:13is to be feared,
12who #[Isa. 18:5] cuts off the spirit of princes,
who #See Ps. 47:2is to be feared by the kings of the earth.
