It is you alone who are to be feared. Who can stand before you when you are angry? From heaven you pronounced judgment, and the land feared and was quiet— when you, God, rose up to judge, to save all the afflicted of the land. Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise, and the survivors of your wrath are restrained. Make vows to the LORD your God and fulfill them; let all the neighboring lands bring gifts to the One to be feared.

But you, you are to be feared! Who can stand before you when once your anger is roused? From the heavens you uttered judgment; the earth feared and was still, when God arose to establish judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise you; the remnant of wrath you will put on like a belt. Make your vows to the LORD your God and perform them; let all around him bring gifts to him who is to be feared

No wonder you are greatly feared! Who can stand before you when your anger explodes? From heaven you sentenced your enemies; the earth trembled and stood silent before you. You stand up to judge those who do evil, O God, and to rescue the oppressed of the earth. Interlude Human defiance only enhances your glory, for you use it as a weapon. Make vows to the LORD your God, and keep them. Let everyone bring tribute to the Awesome One.

And you — you are to be feared.  When you are angry, who can stand before you?  From heaven you pronounced judgment. The earth feared and grew quiet  when God rose up to judge and to save all the lowly of the earth.  Selah Even human wrath will praise you; you will clothe yourself with the wrath that remains.  , Make and keep your vows to the  LORD your God;  let all who are around him bring tribute to the awe-inspiring one. 

Thou, even thou, art to be feared: And who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry? Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; The earth feared, and was still, When God arose to judgment, To save all the meek of the earth. Selah. Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: The remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain. Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: Let all that be round about him Bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

You, Yourself, are to be feared; And who may stand in Your presence When once You are angry? You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; The earth feared and was still, When God arose to judgment, To deliver all the oppressed of the earth. Selah Surely the wrath of man shall praise You; With the remainder of wrath You shall gird Yourself. Make vows to the LORD your God, and pay them; Let all who are around Him bring presents to Him who ought to be feared.

Fierce you are, and fearsome! Who can stand up to your rising anger? From heaven you thunder judgment; earth falls to her knees and holds her breath. God stands tall and makes things right, he saves all the wretched on earth. Instead of smoldering rage—God-praise! All that sputtering rage—now a garland for God! Do for GOD what you said you’d do— he is, after all, your God. Let everyone in town bring offerings to the One Who Watches our every move. Nobody gets by with anything, no one plays fast and loose with him.

You, You indeed are to be feared, And who may stand in Your presence, once You are angry? ¶You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; The earth feared and was still When God arose to judgment, To save all the humble of the earth. Selah For the wrath of mankind shall praise You; You will encircle Yourself with a remnant of wrath. ¶Make vows to the LORD your God and fulfill them; All who are around Him are to bring gifts to Him who is to be feared.

You, even You, are to be feared [with the submissive wonder of reverence]; Who may stand in Your presence when once You are angry? ¶You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; The earth feared and was quiet When God arose to [establish] judgment, To save all the humble of the earth. Selah. For the wrath of man shall praise You; With a remnant of wrath You will clothe and arm Yourself. ¶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].

You are awesome! Yes, you! Who can withstand your intense anger? From heaven you announced what their punishment would be. The earth was afraid and silent when God arose to execute judgment, and to deliver all the oppressed of the earth. (Selah) Certainly your angry judgment upon men will bring you praise; you reveal your anger in full measure. Make vows to the LORD your God and repay them! Let all those who surround him bring tribute to the awesome one!
