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 Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.
1In Judah is God known:
His name is great in Israel.
2In Salem also is his tabernacle,
And his dwelling place in Zion.
3There he brake the arrows of the bow;
The shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah
4Glorious art thou and excellent, from the mountains of prey.
5The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep;
And none of the men of might have found their hands.
6At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
7Thou, even thou, art to be feared:
And who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?
8Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven;
The earth feared, and was still,
9When God arose to judgement,
To save all the meek of the earth. Selah
10Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee:
The residue of wrath shalt thou gird upon thee.
11Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God:
Let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
12He shall cut off the spirit of princes:
He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
