Psalms 76:10 - Compare All Versions

Deildu

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!

Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: The remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

For the wrath of man shall praise You; With a remnant of wrath You will gird Yourself.

People praise you for your anger against evil. Those who live through your anger are stopped from doing more evil.

Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: The residue of wrath shalt thou gird upon thee.

Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise, and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.

Surely the wrath of man shall praise You; With the remainder of wrath You shall gird Yourself.

For the wrath of man shall praise You; With a remnant of wrath You will clothe and arm Yourself.

Human defiance only enhances your glory, for you use it as a weapon.

You have power to transform man’s futile anger into praise. The fury of your enemies only causes your fame to increase.

Surely the wrath of man shall praise you; the remnant of wrath you will put on like a belt.
